Lana Del Rey's Potential 007 Theme for First Light

Lana Del Rey has stirred speculation by registering a song with ASCAP that matches the title of IO Interactive's upcoming James Bond game, 007 First Light. While the song could also relate to her forthcoming album, Del Rey's past work and distinctive style make her a fitting candidate for a Bond theme, reminiscent of Nancy Sinatra or Shirley Bassey.

Game Details and Release

007 First Light is set for release on 2026-03-27. The game is expected to draw on the successful Hitman series by IO Interactive, featuring engaging gunplay and cinematic scenes of Bond. The unique mix of action could align well with Del Rey's vocal style, potentially enhancing the game's dramatic moments.

Background and Potential

Lana Del Rey previously wrote a theme for the Bond film Spectre, which ultimately was not used. If the registered song is indeed for the game, this would mark her first released contribution to the Bond franchise. Fans and gamers alike are looking forward to the synergy between her music and the action-packed sequences of First Light.
