50 free No Time to Die trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
No Time to Die closed out Daniel Craig's fifteen years as James Bond, and this quiz covers the whole of it: the frozen-lake prologue in Norway, the Aston Martin DB5 tearing through Matera, Paloma's three weeks of training in Cuba, Blofeld's bionic eye in Belmarsh, Project Heracles and the island where the missiles finally fall. It starts with questions any Bond fan can answer (who plays Safin, which agent inherits the 007 number, who sings the theme) and works up to the production stories that only the obsessives know: which director walked away in 2018, which composer was replaced in post-production, why the working title lasted so long, how many times the release moved during the pandemic, and what Louis Armstrong has to do with the closing credits. Every answer was checked against production records and the film's own credits, and each question links to its source. If you want the whole series, our James Bond trivia page covers all 25 films; this one is for the finale.

Q 01No Time to Die is which numbered entry in the Eon James Bond film series?

Twenty-fifth: the film was known for years only as Bond 25, and its real title was not revealed until August 2019, months after the cameras had started rolling.
Q 02Which film began the run as James Bond that Daniel Craig ended with No Time to Die?

Q 03Who directed No Time to Die?
Cary Joji Fukunaga
Cary Joji Fukunaga became the first American to direct an Eon Bond film. He was hired in a hurry, with the release date said to hang on finding a director within sixty days.

Danny Boyle
Danny Boyle and his writer John Hodge walked away months before shooting, after producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson lost confidence in the story he had pitched.
Q 05Who plays the villain Lyutsifer Safin in No Time to Die?
Rami Malek
Rami Malek, fresh from his Oscar for Bohemian Rhapsody, said Safin does not see himself as a villain at all: he considers himself a hero, 'almost in the same way that Bond is a hero'.
Q 06In No Time to Die, what is the DNA-targeting nanobot weapon developed in secret by MI6 called?
Project Heracles
Project Heracles was M's own secret programme, designed to kill one chosen target by DNA; in Safin's hands the same nanobots could be set to wipe out a victim's whole family.
Q 07In No Time to Die, which agent holds the 007 number while Bond is retired?
Nomi
Nomi is played by Lashana Lynch, who wanted 'a human spin' on a franchise that had been slick for years: an agent who deals with anxiety and is figuring it out on her toes.
Q 08In No Time to Die, which actress plays Paloma, the CIA agent who helps Bond in Cuba?
Ana de Armas
Ana de Armas had just starred opposite Daniel Craig in Knives Out. In the first script Paloma was only a contact, until the director asked for more and the part was built up for her.
Q 09In No Time to Die, which country is the retired Bond living in when Felix Leiter recruits him?
Jamaica
Jamaica is where Ian Fleming wrote the Bond novels and where the series began on screen with Dr. No, and the producers went back to the island to unveil this film's cast in 2019.
Q 10In No Time to Die, which character turns traitor, shooting Felix Leiter and sinking the trawler?
Logan Ash
Logan Ash, Billy Magnussen's eager State Department man, arrives as Leiter's ally and turns out to be a double agent for Safin, escaping with the kidnapped scientist.
Q 11In No Time to Die, from which London prison does Blofeld watch the SPECTRE party in Cuba?
Belmarsh
Belmarsh is the high-security jail where Blofeld sits, still running his organisation from a cell; the attack he orders on Bond at the party kills his own followers instead.
Q 12In No Time to Die, what is the name of Madeleine's daughter, whom Bond learns is his own?
Mathilde
Mathilde is five when Bond meets her. Madeleine insists the girl is not his, but he points to her blue eyes, and Madeleine admits the truth in their final call.
Q 13In No Time to Die, whose grave in southern Italy explodes when Bond visits it?
Vesper Lynd
Vesper Lynd was the lost love of Craig's first Bond film. Madeleine urges him to visit her tomb and let go, and the bomb waiting there convinces him that Madeleine has betrayed him too.
Q 21Which Norwegian route, hopping between small islands on arched bridges, hosts a car chase in No Time to Die?
The Atlantic Ocean Road
The Atlantic Ocean Road, opened in 1989, is a favourite of carmakers, who shoot adverts on its swooping bridges; here Range Rovers chase Bond across them.
Q 22Which archipelago supplied the exteriors of Safin's island lair in No Time to Die?
The Faroe Islands
The Faroe Islands made their Bond debut here: the lair is set on the cliffs of Kalsoy, with the villain's base added to the bare island digitally.
Q 23Which body part did Daniel Craig injure while filming No Time to Die in the Caribbean, needing surgery?
Ankle
Q 14What finally kills James Bond at the end of No Time to Die?
A missile strike
A missile strike that Bond stays to guide in: he opens the island's blast doors for the Navy's missiles and remains, because the nanobots in his blood would kill his family at a touch.
Q 15Which actor plays M, Bond's boss at MI6, in No Time to Die?
Ralph Fiennes
Ralph Fiennes has played M since Skyfall. Here his spymaster is the one at fault, having secretly commissioned the weapon that is stolen from an MI6 laboratory.
Q 16Which screenwriter did Daniel Craig bring in to polish the script of No Time to Die?
Phoebe Waller-Bridge
Phoebe Waller-Bridge, the creator of Fleabag, was Craig's own suggestion, and the producers 'leapt at the opportunity'; she became only the second woman credited as a writer on a Bond film.
Q 17Who performed the title song of No Time to Die?
Billie Eilish
Billie Eilish was four when Daniel Craig first played Bond. At 18 she wrote his farewell theme with her brother Finneas, the youngest artist ever to write and record one.
Q 18Which composer replaced Dan Romer on the score of No Time to Die in early 2020?
Hans Zimmer
Hans Zimmer was hired at the last minute, with the film already in post-production, after creative differences ended Romer's stint; no Bond composer had been replaced so late before.
Q 19Which earlier Bond film supplied No Time to Die's refrain 'We Have All the Time in the World'?
On Her Majesty's Secret Service
On Her Majesty's Secret Service ends with Bond cradling his murdered bride and saying they have all the time in the world, so when Craig's Bond repeats the line it sounds like a warning.
Q 20In which southern Italian city was No Time to Die's Aston Martin DB5 chase filmed?
Matera
Matera's cave-cut old town, carved into a hillside in Basilicata, had served as a set for Biblical epics such as The Passion of the Christ before Bond's DB5 came sliding through its squares.
Ankle surgery kept Craig off the set for two weeks; the producers carried on shooting without him and insisted the release date would hold.
Q 24What was damaged at Pinewood Studios in 2019 when a controlled explosion for No Time to Die went wrong?

Q 25No Time to Die was the first Bond film to shoot some sequences with which kind of camera?
65mm IMAX
65mm IMAX film cameras shot part of the picture, a first for the series; the director and his cinematographer had pushed to shoot on film rather than digitally for the look it gives.

Q 29Which director, who turned down No Time to Die in 2017, was named in 2025 to direct the next Bond film?
Denis Villeneuve
Denis Villeneuve said he would have loved to make it but would let nothing get in the way of Dune; eight years on, the series' new owners chose him for the next film.
Q 30No Time to Die's cast was unveiled in 2019 at Ian Fleming's former home, which shares its name with which Bond film?
