UPDATE: Excitement is building as fans speculate that Lana Del Rey may be crafting the theme song for the highly anticipated game 007: First Light. Recent developments reveal that a song registered under her real name, Elizabeth Grant, titled “First Light”, has sparked theories among fans on social media platforms like Reddit.
This potential collaboration would mark a significant moment for Del Rey, who previously penned a track called “24” for the James Bond film Spectre, although it was ultimately replaced by Sam Smith’s “Writing’s on the Wall.” The new registration on ASCAP, the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, suggests that Del Rey could finally have her chance to create an original Bond theme, a dream she first expressed years ago.
The speculation is fueled by Del Rey’s long-standing affinity for cinematic themes and storytelling, as evidenced by her hit song “Video Games,” which reflects her artistic connection to gaming culture. If confirmed, her involvement could add a deeply emotional and atmospheric layer to the game’s narrative.
While some fans remain cautious, noting that the song might relate to her upcoming album, Stove, slated for release in early 2024, the timing of this registration raises intriguing questions. The album has faced multiple delays and name changes, leaving room for speculation that Del Rey could be juggling various projects simultaneously.
Mark your calendars: 007: First Light is set to launch on March 27, 2026. With IO Interactive providing sneak peeks of the game, fans can expect more updates to emerge soon. If the speculation doesn’t pan out, the anticipation for Del Rey’s Stove will remain high, keeping her dedicated followers engaged.
As the news unfolds, fans are eager to share their thoughts on social media, making this developing story a hot topic among music and gaming enthusiasts alike. Stay tuned for more updates on this thrilling potential collaboration that could redefine the Bond legacy.
