Bond goes undercover as not-so-subtly coded gay man in 1969's On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Bond is hunted but a couple-and we mean, like, a romantic couple-of assassins in 1971's Diamonds Are Forever. Bond heads to San Francisco to tango with a glamorous villain played by gay icon Grace Jones in 1985's A View To A Kill. Bond hints to a flirty nemesis that he may have been with men before in 2012's Skyfall. Bond nearly interrupts his colleague Q's (out actor Ben Whishaw) date with another man in 2021's No Time To Die.

Unlike many fictional gadgets seen in Bond movies, the SC3 was not a movie prop designed solely for visual appeal. It was engineered as a real-world concept capable of operating both on the water's surface and beneath it. The project reportedly attracted interest from the UK Special Boat Service and even DARPA because of its unconventional capabilities and military-style versatility before eventually making its way into the Bond universe.

Art director Rasmus Poulsen stated that the design references 'more how the UI of the game feels' rather than simply making a franchise stamp. He mentioned that the design has a 'Sun' flavor, playing with light and shadow themes.

The stealth mechanics truly shine in the early game, allowing players to decide which group of MI6 captives to rescue first and how to approach the objective.

Over an hour of footage, including the apparent ending of the game, has leaked due to a security flaw with the Indonesian Game Rating System (IGRS). Fans eager to experience the game without spoilers should be wary of major story revelations from the game now circulating online, six weeks ahead of First Light's May 27 launch.

Despite now being fully owned and controlled by Amazon MGM Studios, James Bond movies have been irregularly available on Prime Video or other streaming services in recent months. Starting January 15th, though, 26 of the iconic British spy's cinematic adventures will begin streaming on Netflix, from the Sean Connery-starring Dr. No to the final Daniel Craig film, No Time to Die.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson has emerged as the clear frontrunner to take on the role of James Bond next. Taylor-Johnson has long been linked with the role of 007, and his position at the top of the market reflects growing confidence that he could be handed the keys to the Aston Martin. The 35-year-old boasts an impressive CV, including a Golden Globe win and nominations for two BAFTAs and a British Independent Film Award, making him a strong fit for the long-running franchise.

The James Bond movies are the longest running film franchise in cinema history. It is estimated that over half the world's population have seen 007 in action in one of his 25 adventures. The series is known for its jet-setting format and with the trend of visiting iconic screen destinations showing no sign of slowing down, Culture Trip caught up with authors (and fans) Matthew Field and Ajay Chowdhury to pick out their favourite locations

'Shaking tends to be a more energy-intensive process and also creates small shards of ice that melt quickly. This creates more dilution, assuming shake and stir times are equal.'

For decades, cocktail connoisseurs have taken aim at James Bond's most famous order, their objections falling into two camps. First, shaking a martini is seen as a rookie mistake: it clouds the spirit, bruises the botanicals, and leaves you with a drink light on flavor and heavy on regret. Second, why reach for neutral vodka when a martini, being so spirit-forward, was made for the juniper bite of gin? Clearly, they insist, 007 had no idea what he was doing.

Walmart has the 007 6-Film Steelbook Library Collection in stock for $142.68, which is just a couple bucks more than Amazon charged for its $140 exclusive.

Amazon had the exclusive on the US edition, which featured 4K Blu-ray and digital copies.
