James Bond will reportedly have a daughter in No Time To Die

James Bond will reportedly have a daughter in the upcoming movie No Time To Die, according to sources.

The rumour came after call sheets for the film appeared on eBay, with descriptions of scenes suggesting Bond will become a father for the first time in the movie.

As The Mirror reports, one of the sheets describes a scene shot in Italy last year. The sequence features the secret agent’s lover Dr Madeleine Swann (played by Lea Seydoux), MI6 agent Nomi (played by Lashana Lynch) and a child called Mathilde.

The sheet also outlines a scene from the film where “Nomi pilots Madeleine and Mathilde to safety with the island in the background”.

The movie is set five years after the events of previous film Spectre, with Bond in retirement with Seydoux’s Swann. The reports suggest that the pair have spent that time raising a child together, although the news has yet to be confirmed by the studio.

No Time To Die is set to be Daniel Craig’s final outing as Bond after five films and 14 years in the role. Rami Malek, Ana De Armas, Ralph Feinees, Ben Whishaw and Jeffery Wright also star in the movie, which was co-written by Fleabag’s Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

The movie had been set to be released over the summer, but was pushed back to November 12 due to the coronavirus outbreak.
