Five-time Grammy winner Billie Eilish just released her original theme song to the upcoming 25th James Bond film, No Time To Die. 18-year-old Eilish wrote and recorded “No Time To Die,” making her the youngest artist to have the honor of recording a Bond movie theme song.

The Bond theme song was produced by Billie Eilish’s brother, FINNEAS, as well as Stephen Lipson. Hans Zimmer and Matt Dunkley did the orchestral arrangements and Johnny Marr plays the guitar on the track.

“There are a chosen few who record a Bond theme. I am a huge fan of Billie and FINNEAS. Their creative integrity and talent are second to none and I cannot wait for audiences to hear what they’ve brought – a fresh new perspective whose vocals will echo for generations to come,” said director Cary Joji Fukunaga.

Commenting on her involvement, Eilish said, “It feels crazy to be a part of this in every way. To be able to score the theme song to a film that is part of such a legendary series is a huge honor. James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist. I’m still in shock.”

“Writing the theme song for a Bond film is something we’ve been dreaming about doing our entire lives. There is no more iconic pairing of music and cinema than the likes of Goldfinger and Live and Let Die. We feel so so lucky to play a small role in such a legendary franchise, long live 007,” added FINNEAS.

Eilish is set to perform the song live at the Brit Awards on February 18th. She’ll be joined for the performance by FINNEAS, Hans Zimmer, and Johnny Marr.

No Time to Die starring Daniel Craig as the suave superspy opens in theaters on April 10, 2020. Also starring are Ralph Fiennes as M, Naomie Harris as Eve Moneypenny, Rory Kinnear as Tanner, Léa Seydoux as Madeleine Swann, Ben Whishaw as Q, and Jeffrey Wright as Felix Leiter.

CBS All Access’ critically acclaimed, award-winning drama The Good Fight will kick off its fourth season on Thursday, April 9, 2020. The new season will consist of 10 hour-long episodes available only to CBS All Access subscribers on demand.

The cast is led by Christine Baranski as Diane Lockhart, Cush Jumbo as Lucca Quinn, Delroy Lindo as Adrian Boseman, and Audra McDonald as Liz Reddick-Lawrence. Sarah Steele is Marissa Gold, Michael Boatman is Julius Cain, Nyambi Nyambi is Jay Dipersia, Zach Grenier is David Lee, and John Larroquette is Gavin Firth. Hugh Dancy will take on a recurring role in season four.

Robert King, Michelle King, and Phil Alden Robinson created the series, with Robert and Michelle King serve as showrunners. The Kings also executive produce with Ridley Scott, David W. Zucker, Brooke Kennedy, Liz Glotzer, William Finkelstein, and Jonathan Tolins.

The Season Four Plot, Courtesy of CBS All Access:

“Season four of The Good Fight finds Reddick, Boseman & Lockhart navigating a very different landscape. After they lost their biggest client, Chumhum, and their founding partner’s name was tarnished, Reddick, Boseman & Lockhart was forced to accept an offer by a huge multi-national law firm, STR Laurie, to become a small subsidiary. Suddenly, all of their decisions can be second-guessed by the giant firm that is literally on top of them.

While STR Laurie initially seem like benevolent overlords, we find Diane Lockhart and her colleagues chafing at their loss of independence.”

“Once a Duck, always a Duck!” said Emilio Estevez, “and after 25 years, I am delighted to lace up my skates, put on Coach Bombay’s jacket, and return to play the iconic character for this new chapter in The Mighty Ducks franchise. Likewise, I am thrilled to return to my old stomping grounds with my friends at Disney and Steve Brill, the original creator of the franchise, to join them on their exciting new platform, Disney+.”

“It was an easy decision to bring back the Quack Attack with a modern and fresh twist,” added Agnes Chu, senior vice president, Content, Disney+. “For a generation, The Mighty Ducks stood for teamwork, friendship, and heart and we’re excited to see the Ducks fly together once again and bring the franchise to new audiences around the world.

After 12-year-old Evan (Noon) is unceremoniously cut from the Ducks, he and his mom Alex (Graham) set out to build their own ragtag team of misfits to challenge the cutthroat, win-at-all-costs culture of competitive youth sports. With the help of Gordon Bombay (Estevez), they discover the joys of playing just for the love of the game.”

The trailer for A24’s The Green Knight begins with Dev Patel as Sir Gawain seated in a chair while the tagline “in a time when honor was everything, when courage made kings” appears on screen. He’s then set on fire. Why? The trailer doesn’t clearly reveal what this signifies, but anyone familiar with A24’s catalog of films and writer/director David Lowery’s work knows to expect something unique and maybe even twisted.

In addition to Dev Patel (Slumdog Millionaire), the cast includes Alicia Vikander (Tomb Raider), Joel Edgerton (It Comes at Night), Sarita Choudhury (Jessica Jones), Sean Harris (The King), Kate Dickie (The Cry), Barry Keoghan (American Animals), and Ralph Ineson (The Capture).

The Plot:

“An epic fantasy adventure based on the timeless Arthurian legend, The Green Knight tells the story of Sir Gawain (Patel), King Arthur’s reckless and headstrong nephew, who embarks on a daring quest to confront the eponymous Green Knight, a gigantic emerald-skinned stranger and tester of men. Gawain contends with ghosts, giants, thieves, and schemers in what becomes a deeper journey to define his character and prove his worth in the eyes of his family and kingdom by facing the ultimate challenger.”

The FBI Plot, Courtesy of CBS:

“FBI is a fast-paced drama about the inner workings of the New York office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Her partner is Special Agent Omar Adom ‘OA’ Zidan, a West Point graduate via Bushwick who spent two years undercover for the DEA before being cherry-picked by the FBI.

Overseeing them is Special Agent in Charge, Isobel Castille, who operates under intense pressure and has undeniable command authority. The team also includes Assistant Special Agent in Charge Jubal Valentine, the nerve center of the office whose ability to easily relate to and engage with both superiors and subordinates makes him a master motivator. Kristen Chazal is the team’s most valued resource, a brilliant analyst recruited straight out of university who can piece together the big picture faster than anyone. These first-class agents tenaciously investigate cases of tremendous magnitude, including terrorism, organized crime and counterintelligence.”
