The world's more than willing to wait for 007's next adventure. Or at least, Amazon and the Broccolis hope they are.

As fans of the James Bond movies continue to wait patiently for any sort of progress on the next installment, the post-No Time to Die atmosphere is a bit chilly. To be fair, the extended wait for the release of Daniel Craig’s swan song and the now three years that have passed since are atypical when compared to the franchise’s historically clockwork pace.

The next James Bond movie has been given a disappointing update, with a studio boss saying they are "not concerned" with the gap between films. The last instalment in the long-running spy franchise, No Time to Die, was released three years ago, the movie acting as Daniel Craig ’s swansong as 007.

To be clear, when we say all the James Bond films, we mean the 25 “official” films produced by EON, which began with Dr. No in 1962 and ran through Daniel Craig’s final film in 2021. The 1967’s spoof version of Casino Royale and 1983’s old-Bond-returns, Never Say Never Again, are both not included in this list.

The head of James Bond — we imagine relaxing in her island volcano lair — has declared that we fans need to be "patient" while they decide who the next Bond will be.

We all remember the iconic MGM logo, featuring a roaring lion and the motto "Ars Gratia Artis," from watching 1940s-era Tom!
