Welcome to the EYES ONLY newsletter!

Not much news this week. The best news is probably that Netflix will offer the complete Bond collection in January 2026 - for a limited time and not in all regions, but it will include Never Say Never Again, might be a good time to rewatch that one. It’s rare that the full movie collection can be found at one streamer.

Ian Fleming Publications celebrates 20 years of the SilverFin book with a special, signed edition.

If you haven’t done it already, make sure to enter the latest giveaway where you can win a beautiful Goldfinger print by Michael Gillette (ends 22 December).

And scroll down for the ultimate pool party featuring a Wet Nellie.

I want to wish all of you Happy Holidays! May all your Bond wishes come true!

GAMES

Lenny Kravitz cast in 007 First Light Game

Lenny Kravitz joins the James Bond universe. In a surprise announcement at The Game Awards, IO Interactive revealed that Kravitz will star in 007 First Light as The Pirate King Bawma, a charismatic, unpredictable force operating at the edges of global power.

It’s the first time Kravitz lends both his voice and full likeness to a video game. Bawma leads Aleph, a vast black-market arms network built from an abandoned ship graveyard off Mauritania. Described as equal parts ally and adversary, he’s set to test Bond in ways we haven’t seen before.
