Theatres in countries like Italy, China, South Korea and Japan have also been temporarily closed as nations across the globe try to keep the whole coronavirus situation under control. Official synopsis of No Time to Die: In No Time To Die, James Bond has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.
