New photos of No Time To Die's Lashana Lynch have been released, ahead of the film's November 19 UAE release date. In the series of images, Lynch is in character as the James Bond movie's new 00 agent.
Shot on a smartphone, the Nokia 8.3 5G to be precise, the images show Lynch, who plays Nomi, standing amid an explosive wreckage, with a car in the background – all in all, very James Bond.
Nokia is one of the official partners for the film, which stars Daniel Craig as super-spy James Bond, so perhaps we can expect some delicate Nokia product placement throughout.
For the shoot, Lynch returned to Pinewood Studios, near London, where part of the 25th Bond was filmed. The main image was taken by "phone-ographer" Ben Maclean, who was suspended more than nine metres in the air to get his shot at one stage.
"The world we live in now means we all have the ultimate gadget in our pockets," Lynch said. "It's amazing what smartphones can do nowadays. I'm excited to be unveiling this new smartphone to celebrate the release of No Time To Die in November, and the Nokia 8.3 5G is proof that Bond gadgets are always ahead of the game."
In the background of the shoot are an Aston Martin DBS Superleggera and a Triumph Thruxton RS motorcycle.
