[QUOTE="Admin, post: 68934, member: 1"] Lana Del Rey looks to have gotten a second chance at recording a James Bond theme, this time for the upcoming video game [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/007-first-light']007 First Light[/URL]. Eagle-eyed fans on [URL='https://www.reddit.com/r/lanadelrey/comments/1oaryb3/lana_del_rey_has_registered_a_new_song_titled/?share_id=NmcnXgVLuzq0l8yQVVla2']reddit[/URL] have spotted a fresh song titled "First Light" that has been registered by Del Rey, real name Elizabeth Grant, to the ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers). While not a full confirmation, Del Rey performing the game's theme would be a neat fit, after the singer's 2005 track "24" was snubbed for Daniel Craig outing Spectre, the franchise's 24th movie. IGN has contacted IO Interactive for more. Last year, Del Rey revealed she had written that track as a Bond theme, only for Sam Smith's "Writing's On the Wall" to ultimately get picked instead. "I wrote that for them," Del Rey told [URL='https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cv22mmnjrnyo']BBC News[/URL] previously. "Sam, you did a wonderful job. One day, maybe... But I'm going to continue to do my little Nancy Sinatra thing every now and then and just pretend it's the title track." The Bond franchise typically commissions several potential theme songs for each movie release, with numerous "lost" Bond tracks recorded by famous artists over the years. Johnny Cash recorded a theme for Thunderball, for example, while Pulp had a take on Tomorrow Never Dies. And, like Del Ray, Radiohead also recorded a theme for Spectre (just titled "Spectre") which they also previously released. As for the promising-looking 007 First Light, developer IO Interactive seems more than happy teasing details out over time — such as the long-awaited confirmation that, yes, Dexter: Original Sin's Patrick Gibson is indeed playing its fresh-faced Bond. More recently, we also learned that [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/007-first-light-adds-marvel-star-gemma-chan-to-james-bond-game-cast']Marvel star Gemma Chan will also portray a character in the game[/URL]. 007 First Light has set a release date of March 27, 2026, for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch 2. Before then, we've got plenty more on 007 First Light, including a report on [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/hitman-dev-io-interactive-put-daniel-craigs-head-on-agent-47-when-pitching-for-james-bond-game-007-first-light']how Daniel Craig’s face was put into a Hitman map in order to secure the Bond rights[/URL], and [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/it-was-fairly-small-it-did-feel-significant-how-the-death-of-the-queen-forced-io-to-tweak-007-first-light']how Queen Elizabeth II’s passing affected First Light’s development[/URL].
