Hans Zimmer to compose score for new James Bond film No Time To Die

Variety reports that Zimmer has taken over from Dan Romer, who was dismissed last month due to "creative differences".

No Time To Die is already in post-production in London, and Zimmer will have until April to compose the score.

Zimmer has also scored 2020 films Wonder Woman 1984, Top Gun: Maverick, and Dune.

The change in composers marks the first time in the 58-year history of the Bond films that a composer has been swapped out during post-production.

No Time To Die's theme tune composer is also yet to be announced. Adele did the Skyfall theme song back in 2012, and Sam Smith did the Spectre theme song "Writing's On The Wall" in 2015.
