Modern Bond's timeline might not be watertight, but the general intention for the upcoming final installment is to portray James as a retired veteran, however old that might be. If you don’t have those things, you can still get the Bond look it just might. Long story short: you can look like this at age 40 if you have a lot of money, a personal trainer, a diet coach, great genetics, and five days a week to train. Given how Nomi mocks Bond's creaking body in the No Time To Die trailer, however, the 51/52 age feels more likely, while also lining up more accurately with Daniel Craig's real age. Here’s an interview with Daniel Craig talking about his diet for Casino Royale: James Bond Interview. If No Time To Die starts in 2020, James Bond would be 51/52 using the original 1968 birth date and 48/49 going by the guardianship record in Spectre.Įvidently, continuity has not been a priority in the construction of Daniel Craig's James Bond timeline, with several ambiguities and multiple interpretations. No Time To Die is confirmed to begin almost 5 years after Spectre, once again lining up with the real life premiere date. An unspecified period of time passes between Quantum of Solace and Skyfall, but the presence of the Aston Martin DB10 in Spectre suggests the film was set in 2015, the same year it was released. This would make Bond either 37 or 40 years-old, depending on which date of birth you believe.
Dominic Greene's party invitation in Quantum of Solace specifies a date of '08.23.08,' and this fancy bash takes place in the immediate aftermath of Casino Royale, meaning both happen in 2008. As for when each James Bond film in the Daniel Craig era is set, the timeline is left deliberately ambiguous, but there are a few telling clues.
