Billie Eilish is only 18, but she already accomplished more than many artists do in a lifetime, and the list keeps on getting longer as she just became the latest artist to be bestowed with the special honor of writing the theme song for a James Bond movie.
Eilish first sent her fans in a collective frenzy when she posted a series of photos of Bond girls on her Instagram stories, and rumors immediately started flying around. Luckily, it didn’t take her long to confirm she’ll be writing the theme song for the upcoming 25th installment in the timeless spy franchise.
“It feels crazy to be a part of this in every way. To be able to score the theme song to a film that is part of such a legendary series is a huge honor. James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist. I’m still in shock,” said Eilish.
Her brother and frequent collaborator Finneas, who’ll be writing the song by her side, echoed her statement. He described their new gig as something they’ve been dreaming of doing their entire lives and called Bond movies the most “iconic pairing of music and cinema” there is.
No Time to Die will come out on April 10th, with Daniel Craig returning to lead role.
