M is engaged in a power struggle with Max Denbigh (whom Bond dubs "C"), the Director-General of the new, privately backed Joint Intelligence Service formed by the merger of MI5 and MI6. In London, Gareth Mallory, the current M, suspends Bond for his unauthorized action. In Mexico City on the Day of the Dead, MI6 agent James Bond wreaks havoc foiling a terrorist bombing plot, follows the leader, Marco Sciarra, onto his escaping helicopter, throws Sciarra and the pilot to their deaths and flies away, examining the stylised octopus on Sciarra's ring. The next film in the series, No Time to Die, was released in 2021. The film's theme song, " Writing's on the Wall", won an Academy Award and Golden Globe for Best Original Song. It grossed $880 million worldwide, making it the sixth-highest grossing film of 2015 and the second-highest grossing James Bond film after Skyfall, unadjusted for inflation. The film received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the action sequences, cast performances (particularly Craig's and Bautista's), and the musical score, but criticised the pacing and formulaic narrative decisions. Spectre premiered at the Royal Albert Hall on 26 October 2015 and was theatrically released in conventional and IMAX formats in the United Kingdom that day, and in the United States on 6 November. Principal photography began in December 2014 and lasted until July 2015, with filming locations including Austria, the United Kingdom, Italy, Morocco, and Mexico. Following the Sony Pictures hack, it was revealed Sony and Eon clashed regarding finance, stunts, and filming locations Spectre is estimated to have a final budget of $245–300 million, making it one of the most expensive films ever made. The inclusion of Spectre and its associated characters marked the end of the Thunderball controversy, in which Kevin McClory and Fleming were embroiled in lengthy legal disputes over the film rights to the novel Spectre is the first film to feature these elements since Diamonds Are Forever (1971). In the film, Bond learns of Spectre, an international crime organisation led by Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Waltz).ĭespite initially stating he would not direct Spectre, Mendes confirmed his return in 2014 after Nicolas Winding Refn declined to direct Mendes became the first to direct successive James Bond films since John Glen.

Directed by Sam Mendes and written by Neal Purvis, Robert Wade, John Logan, and Jez Butterworth, it stars Daniel Craig as Bond, alongside Christoph Waltz, Léa Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, Dave Bautista, Monica Bellucci, and Ralph Fiennes.
