No Time to Die was one of the biggest releases of 2021, earning more than $774 million worldwide during its initial run. If you missed your chance to see it in theaters last year — or if you just want to see Daniel Craig’s final outing as 007 on the big screen one more time, now’s your chance. The 25th Bond film is heading back to IMAX screens January 21st for special screenings just in time to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of James Bond.

Created by Ian Fleming in a series of bestselling novels, James Bond first came to the big screen in 1962’s Dr. No. Since then there have been 25 films in the series, including No Time to Die which was the first James Bond film to use IMAX cameras.

in a press release, MGM’s Motion Picture Chairman Michael De Luca said, “No Time To Die, which was the only movie released last year to have sequences shot with IMAX Film Cameras, captured the attention of both critics and audiences alike when it was first released globally in theaters last fall, eventually becoming one of the biggest films of 2021”. He continued, saying, “What better way to celebrate 007 turning 60 than to offer fans an opportunity to experience the film again in the most immersive theatrical environment.”

The special IMAX screenings come with a few extras for Bond fans with an exclusive Q&A from Daniel Craig, director, Cary Joji Fukunaga, and series’ producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson. MGM has also created a special 60th Anniversary logo for the event which can be viewed here and the previously released documentary Being James Bond: The Daniel Craig Story, which was previously an Apple TV+ exclusive, is now available to watch on the official James Bond YouTube Channel.
