Fukunaga would ultimately be hired to take the helm of No Time to Die and credited with developing the story with franchise vets Neal Purvis and Robert Wade and getting a writing credit with the two as well as Phoebe Waller-Bridge. No Time to Die hit theaters this past October to largely positive reviews from critics and audiences and was a box office hit, grossing nearly $775 million against its reported $301 million production budget.
