Eilish will be the youngest artist to ever work on a James Bond theme song and as an 18-year-old multi-platinum selling and GRAMMY Award nominated artist, this comes as little surprise. Eilish is writing the song with her usual collaborator, her older brother FINNEAS.

Eilish spoke on the special opportunity stating, “It feels crazy to be a part of this in every way. To be able to score the theme song to a film that is part of such a legendary series is a huge honor. James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist. I’m still in shock”.
