No Time To Die was originally scheduled to release last year but was delayed due to the ongoing pandemic. According to The Mirror UK, MGM and the film's producers are keen to host the premiere on a grand scale at a large stadium in London like the Wembley Arena. A source told the media outlet that those behind the scenes think that they can pull off the biggest in-person movie premiere in the post-pandemic era and the event in England will signal the return of such flashy movie launches that were missing last year. The source further revealed that the makers are looking at the biggest venues in London starting from Wembley and have also talked with Staples Center in Los Angeles for the US premiere. He added that the Bond team and MGM always wanted the movie to launch with a red carpet event and this was one of the reasons why they were okay with the delays happening.
