Even No Time To Die composer Hans Zimmer was inspired by the classic scores of James Bond’s past, as well as the work of David Arnold at the beginning of the Daniel Craig era, when it came to writing the movie’s music.
That decision was probably the most instrumental to No Time To Die’s theme getting the classic James Bond easter egg you can now hear in its second verse.
Feeling the 007 series had lost the usual guitar fueled twang that it included in the past, Zimmer was determined to enlist Inception collaborator and guitar legend Johnny Marr to correct that oversight.
