However, according to Barbara Broccoli, the producer of the upcoming Bond film, ‘No Time To Die’, the villain this time around is going to be the most menacing of all. The character, named Safin, will be played by the Oscar-winning actor, Rami Malek. In fact, Safin is said to be so malevolent, Barbara has called him a “supervillain” and a “nasty piece of work”. She has also been quoted as saying that he will really “get under Bond's skin”.


Coming back to ‘No Time To Die’, the film is the 25th installment in the James Bond series. It will feature Daniel Craig, for the fifth time, as the MI6 agent. The film, which is one of the most anticipated projects next year, is scheduled to hit theatres in April, 2020.


Interestingly, the film, which has been shot in multiple locations, including Italy, Jamaica, Norway and London, was originally meant to release on November 8. 2019.


However, after Danny Boyle quit the director’s role following creative differences, the film’s release was pushed to February 2020. Later, it was pushed once again, this time around, to April 2020.
