With just three months to go before the new James Bond movie No Time To Die releases in theatres this April, the producers have brought in a new composer in an unprecedented move for the decades-old 007 franchise.

　　Sources told Variety that Eon Productions have hired Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer (The Lion King, Gladiator, Blade Runner 2049) to take over following the departure of Dan Romer. According to the report, Romer and Eon had "creative differences."

　　Now Playing: No Time To Die - 007 James Bond Official Trailer

　　No Time To Die director Cary Fukunaga hired Romer in Summer 2019; they previously worked together on Fukunaga's Beasts of No Nation and Maniac.

　　Variety reports that Zimmer may not be working on the No Time To Die music alone, due to the very short turnaround. Unsubstantiated rumours suggest that Benjamin Wallfisch and Lorne Balfe might be collaborating with Zimmer on the No Time To Die score.

　　This change-up is unexpected and unprecedented. Variety reminds us that never before in the 58-year history of the James Bond series has a composer been replaced during post-production.

　　No Time To Die is scheduled to hit theatres on April 10, and it is expected that it will be the final James Bond movie starring Daniel Craig in the lead role. Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, and Léa Seydoux (who also appears in Death Stranding) all return to the roles of M, Q, Miss Moneypenny, and Madeleine Swann respectively. The new cast members include Rami Malek as the villain, as well as Billy Magnussen and Ana de Armas.
