Waller-Bridge was brought on to co-write the screenplay for No Time to Die, the 25th James Bond film, to introduce more humor and her offbeat writing style.
Behind the camera
Waller-Bridge formed Wells Street Films, a British-based production house, in January 2020. Jenny Robins, a Fleabag stage and series alum, became head of television and film there, and Charlotte McBrearty, also an alum, joined as a development executive.

Waller-Bridge exited the Mr. and Mrs. Smith television adaptation in September 2021 over creative differences, after being set to create and star in it with Donald Glover.
