Are the new james bond movies coming out on NetFlix?
Plural?
Who knows what the distant future holds ...
But the current one, No Time to Die, is finished and under wraps, scheduled for a theatrical release in Nov., '20. Originally it was supposed to come out last November ... but there were delays after Craig and the producers parted ways with their first choice of director Danny Boyle and his writer ... something about "creative differences," so they hired True Detective, Season One director/writer Cary Fukunaga.
Further delays meant it was then scheduled to come out theatrically last week in North America, but about six weeks ago the producers and the studios announced a new date, this November ... which I don't think is even a given at this point.
Will they decide to release it digitally instead? I think it's possible, but with a 1/4 billion dollar budget, not including advertising they, and the studios financing them, really need a big theatrical release to make money. Digital revenues alone probably wouldn't even come close to making back the budget. I think the same thing is true of other big releases like Black Widow and Wonder Woman 1984, which are being held back, too ...
My own preference is to wait and see NTTD on an Imax screen in a movie theatre. But wait how long, is the "billion" dollar question.
Universal released The Invisible Man early on VOD, but only after a theatrical run, however much it was cut short by the pandemic ... and smaller films are doing so, too, I think ....
But the truth is nothing is certain and we don't know what the theatrical exhibition scene will be like in six to eight months ... so they may have no choice but to release these things digitally soon, even the biggest, most-expensive movies.
Going forward, after No Time to Die, whenever it comes out ... I think the half-brother/half-sister team (and second-generation family), that runs the Bond franchise, may feel it's time to sell-out to one of the big digital services like Netflix or Disney.
Afterall, they're getting old and may not have the energy anymore to produce new ones (and will be at least five years since the last one) ... and they're also facing the prospect of hiring a new actor to play Bond ... so it may be time to sell.
Before big problems hit Disney, Bob Iger had actually expressed publicly an interest in acquiring the franchise, so, yeah, I can definitely see it, much as they had with Star Wars, not that I want the Mouse House anywhere near my precious Bond ....
