In over half a century of the iconic film franchise, James Bond has never died. But considering how Daniel Craig’s final outing is completing a five-episode story arc and looks to be something of a swansong for the star, does his spy really have No Time To Die? Express.co.uk asked a Bond expert who is pretty adamant that producers wouldn’t allow such a shock move.
Robbie Sims, author of new book Quantum of Silliness: The Peculiar World of Bond, James Bond reckons it would be very expected for Ian Fleming’s spy to kick the bucket.
In an exclusive interview, the writer said: “I don’t think they would.
“If they did then, hey, you’ve surprised me and congratulations that would be a twist.
“I feel like the general public doesn’t want to see the hero die.”

Sims was promoting his new humour book Quantum of Silliness: The Peculiar World of Bond, James Bond.
Admitting it’s the perfect loo book for a Bond fan, it takes “an absurdist deep dive into the greatest movie franchise of them all.”
He said: “It’s essentially a bitesized little book of nonsense.
“I do list of the most cringeworthy moments because they’re often quite bizarre.”
The Bond expert added: “And I dissect Die Another Day which is perhaps one of the more easily absurd ones.
“There’s stuff in there’s looking at the actual silliness of it and then there’s stuff which is just my silliness on the side.
“An opportunity to affectionately take the mickey out of a much-loved franchise.”
Quantum of Silliness: The Peculiar World of Bond, James Bond by Robbie Sims is out March 2, 2020.
