As for when fans can expect a new 007, there may be a wait until anything is revealed. Over two years since Not Time to Die was released in cinemas, there hasn't been much word on what could be next for the spy.
Back in October, franchise chief Barbara Broccoli told The Guardian that she and her fellow producers "haven't even begun" the process of modernising Bond for the next film, noting there is "a big road ahead" to ensure the next bond is "reinvented for the next chapter".
Goldfinger will air on Monday 4th March on ITV4 and ITVX. Check out more of our Film coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to see what's on tonight.
