Adele Confirmed To Do Theme Song For Skyfall
Update: You can listen to a sample of the song below.
It has been confirmed that smash success artist Adele will be doing the theme song for the upcoming James Bond film Skyfall, the 23rd film in the Bond series. The artist tweeted a picture of the cover to the song and later tweeted that the song will be released Oct. 5th “0:07hr BST”. Adele recorded the song last month at Abbey Road Studios.
Adele states, “I was a little hesitant at first to be involved with the theme song for ‘Skyfall.’ There’s a lot of instant spotlight and pressure when it comes to a Bond song. But I fell in love with the script and Paul had some great ideas for the track and it ended up being a bit of a no brainer to do it in the end. It was also a lot of fun writing to a brief, something I’ve never done which made it exciting. When we recorded the strings, it was one of the proudest moments of my life. I’ll be back combing my hair when I’m 60 telling people I was a Bond girl back in the day I’m sure!”
So, here’s my story: I actually haven’t listened to or heard an Adele song in a while now. Know what? I’m perfectly happy as a result. And I could do very well to never hear her again. Also, this bond movie looks like there might be some rather emotional moments. If Adele’s song makes me want to kill myself before the credits are even over, I’m going to be super pissed. I’m a HUGE Bond fan (I’ve been watching these movies since I was a wee young’un). So Adele, you better crack a damn smile and enjoy this song or I’m going to be upset.

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery
One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.
Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”
In the SXSW 2024 horror film…
“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.
“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”
Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
