Is Lana Del Rey picking up Billie Eilish's mantle with the 007 First Light theme song?

Overview

  • An ASCAP entry lists an unreleased Lana Del Rey song titled First Light under her legal name, Elizabeth Grant, with Universal Music Publishing.
  • Gaming and music outlets report the filing as a strong candidate for IO Interactive's theme song, while stressing the connection remains unconfirmed.
  • Del Rey has history with the franchise, having revealed in 2024 that she wrote 24 for Spectre before the film chose Sam Smith's song.
  • IO Interactive's 007 First Light is a standalone Bond origin story starring Patrick Gibson, scheduled for release on March 27, 2026.
  • The registration was first flagged by Reddit user ConversationDue8475, and reporters note the track could instead appear on Del Rey's January 2026 album Stove.
