Odeon said on Monday it has sold more than 175,000 tickets for "No Time to Die", the latest instalment in the spy series set to hit the big screen this week. Cineworld said it marked its highest pre-selling film since Marvel's superhero movie "Avengers: Endgame" in 2019. "The latest Bond film, 'No Time to Die', is set to be the biggest opening at ODEON cinemas since summer 2019," London-based Odeon said. The company added that attendance at its UK venues this month was tracking 10% above pre-crisis levels, boosted by demand for the 25th Bond film. "The release of a James Bond film is a big event in any year ... but never more so after the last 18 months," UK Cinema Association head Phil Clapp said.
