In late June 2019, it was reported in the media that there had been a title for this movie, 'A Reason to Die', which was to be announced during the late April launch event, 'Bond 25: Live Reveal' (2020) (V), but was allegedly pulled the night before by senior figures in the production for not being Bond enough. If 'A Reason to Die' was to have become the title of this film, then known under the working title of 'Bond 25' (2020), it would also have been the fourth James Bond film to feature the word "die(s)" in the title, after 'Live and Let Die' (1973), ''Tomorrow Never Dies' (1997), and 'Die Another Day' (2002). Further, the theme song for 'Quantum of Solace' (2008) was called 'Another Way to Die'. Moreover, the phrase 'A Reason to Die' formed part of the title for the early 1970s spaghetti western, 'A Reason to Live, a Reason to Die' (1972), which co-starred Telly Savalas, who had played Ernst Stavro Blofeld in the earlier James Bond film 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' (1969). In the end, the title was announced as 'No Time to Die' (2020), which like the title 'A Reason to Die', features the word "die(s)" in the title. So either way, the picture becomes the fourth James Bond film in the official series to feature the word "die(s)" in the title. See more »

History isn't kind to men who play God.
