James Bond now spans 25 movies, six actors, and six decades—not to mention the books, video games, and imitations. Over the years, the character has evolved from the stoic, womanizing emblem of British empire to Daniel Craig’s emotionally driven interpretation. But with the Craig era ending, where does Bond go from here?

Atlantic staff writers Sophie Gilbert, David Sims, and Shirley Li discuss No Time to Die, as well as Bond’s future and past. The trio also shares their favorite Bond theme songs, why Q is Shirley’s underrated Bond king, and why David considers Bond films “the most influential action movies ever made.”
