No Time to Die (2021): the poster

The main poster for Daniel Craig's last Bond film, released in UK cinemas in September 2021 after delays during the pandemic.
Media language: the arrangement of the main characters around Bond, colour and lighting, typography and the 007 logo, and how the poster uses and varies action and spy conventions.
Representation: a more vulnerable Bond; the female characters, including Nomi, a new 00 agent played by Lashana Lynch; the villain; and how they compare with the 1974 poster's representations of gender and ethnicity, comparing specific choices in both posters.
Contexts: changing expectations of gender and diversity in Hollywood blockbusters.
In the exam a copy of the product is provided, and it can be set for Question 1 (media language, 15 marks), for Question 2(a) (contexts, 5 marks) or for Question 2(b), where it is compared with an unseen product in the same form (representation, 25 marks). The film's industry side, for Section B, is a separate lesson.
Describe the poster precisely in your own words, quoting no more than a few words of its text.
