The performance of "No Time To Die" at the box office would pave the road for the reopening of cinemas. Coronavirus and associated safety protocols led to the closure of cinemas, and many of the producers kept the release of their films in abeyance.

This is the third time Naomie Harris plays the role of Moneypenny. To her, it was "an emotional night" because it would be the last outing of Daniel Craig in the role of Bond.
She told BBC News: "I'm really hoping that it does entice people back into cinemas." The title of the 25th Bond movie was finalized in August 2019.

In her words: "We want Daniel to have his time of celebration. Next year, we'll start thinking about the future." From the business angle, two of the cinema chains gave positive feedback.
