Another Stray To Die
Cary Joji Fukunaga and Daniel Craig have revealed that James Bond nearly had a not-so-explosive death in No Time To Die. One idea for the cause of his demise was a stray bullet.
"A bullet — like an anonymous bullet — I remember that one", Cary said.
"But it just seemed like a conventional weapons death didn't seem appropriate. Given how much he'd been able to escape from everything else, the fact it would just be a bullet that always had your name on it from the beginning. While realistic, for Bond, it had to be something even beyond that–like the impossible, impossible situation".
"I think the important thing was that we all try to create a situation of tragedy", Daniel added.
"The idea that there's an insurmountable problem, there's a greater force at play, and there's nothing anybody can do about it".
