MGM and Universal Pictures International announced that Billie Eilish already finished writing and recording the theme song for the upcoming 25th James Bond film No Time to Die. This would make the 18-year-old singer the youngest artist in history to ever record a Bond theme.

Billie composed the song with her brother Finneas O’Connell. The duo made her entire debut album together.

“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,” Billie said.

The last two Bond theme songs – Adele’s Skyfall and Sam Smith’s Writing’s On The Wall (from Spectre) – have both won an Oscar.

The untitled new Bond theme song does not have a release date yet.

No Time to Die is set to be released in April.
