Die Another Day (2002) is the twentieth film in the James Bond series and the fourth and final appearance of Pierce Brosnan as the legendary British secret agent.

Suspended from active duty and determined to uncover the truth, Bond embarks on an unauthorised mission to expose a dangerous conspiracy.
His investigation leads him to a wealthy entrepreneur with ambitious plans involving a powerful satellite weapon capable of devastating entire regions. Along the way, Bond teams up with NSA agent Jinx Johnson, and together they race across Hong Kong, Cuba, Iceland, and North Korea to stop a plot that threatens global security.
Directed by Lee Tamahori, the film celebrates the 40th anniversary of the James Bond franchise with spectacular action sequences, advanced gadgets, exotic locations, and numerous references to earlier Bond adventures. It combines classic espionage with fast-paced action and high-stakes drama.
