Billie Eilish to perform No Time to Die theme song?
Following MGM’s official confirmation that four-time Grammy winner and Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer has indeed signed on as the new composer for No Time to Die, rumors have begun spreading about Grammy nominee Billie Eilish’s involvement in the upcoming 25th Bond movie, speculating that the 18-year-old singer-songwriter is reportedly set to perform the theme song for the film.
Eilish, who has been nominated for six Grammy Awards including Album of the Year and Best New Artist, seemingly gave a cryptic response to the reports earlier today by posting a series of Instagram stories featuring Bond actresses including Halle Berry and Lea Seydoux. If the rumors are true, Billie Eilish would be the youngest artist to ever sing a Bond theme song, succeeding Grammy winners Sam Smith and Adele who did the themes for Spectre and Skyfall, respectively.
CONFIRMED: @HansZimmer will compose the score for #NoTimeToDie. Director Cary Joji Fukunaga said: “I’m beyond excited that Hans is scoring #NoTimeToDie. The music of Bond has always been iconic and I’ve already witnessed Hans adding his touch of genius to the Bond legacy.” pic.twitter.com/L3q06ymLyH
