This should come as no surprise, considering that Apple bid billions of dollars for the James Bond film franchise a few years ago. Before the Sony agreement ended and was continued by Universal Pictures.

It is known, Apple has bought several copyrights for the film which will be released in theaters this year. Like Tom Hanks' Greyhound, which successfully attracted viewers to the Apple TV + service.

By getting the film No Time to Die, it will certainly be a bigger step for Apple. Given that the film will attract millions of new subscribers to the Apple TV + service. This includes convincing film studios to release their latest film online.

Netflix itself is also struggling to get the rights to broadcast from the James Bond franchise. Where the film streaming service has indeed shown several films from James Bond films.
