"Speaking to TalkSport, the Oasis songwriter revealed that while there had not been any contact between himself and the producers of the franchise, he would leap at the opportunity to contribute music for the film, adding that he thought the theme songs the series was known for should be made by British artists."
"Despite the film franchise being a British institution, the Bond theme is often sung by foreigners, with only eight British acts having provided songs for the 25 films produced to date: Barry in 1962, 1963 and 1969, Bassey in 1964, 1971 and 1979, Tom Jones in 1965, Paul McCartney and Wings in 1973, Lulu in 1974, Duran Duran in 1985, Adele in 2012 and Sam Smith in 2015."
Noel Gallagher would leap at the opportunity to write the theme for the next James Bond film and regards doing so as an honour. No contact has occurred between him and the Bond producers, but he thinks the series' signature themes should be produced by British artists. Liam Gallagher responded to rumours by promising Oasis's contribution would be the best Bond tune ever. Noel also expressed interest in portraying a Mancunian villain in the next instalment. The Bond theme tradition dates to Dr No (1962), with relatively few British acts providing songs across 25 films.
