The legendary British rock band Oasis might soon take center stage in one of cinema’s most iconic franchises — James Bond. Reports suggest that producers of the next 007 film are considering the Gallagher brothers to create and perform the new Bond theme, a move that could unite two of the UK’s most defining cultural forces: the rebellious energy of Oasis and the timeless sophistication of Britain’s favorite secret agent. With the Amazon MGM era aiming for a “return to British roots,” this potential collaboration could become the ultimate revival of Britpop spirit on the world’s biggest cinematic stage
The Oasis brothers might soon lend their unmistakable Britpop energy to one of cinema’s most iconic franchises — James Bond. According to reports, producers behind the next 007 film are eyeing Oasis for the official Bond theme song, a move that could unite two pillars of British culture: the raw swagger of the Gallagher brothers and the timeless sophistication of the world’s most famous secret agent.
Sources close to the production claim that Amazon MGM, now fully controlling the Bond franchise, wants a “return to British roots” — a sound that feels distinctly homegrown and true to the spy’s identity. As reported by The Sun, Liam and Noel Gallagher are currently top contenders to compose and perform the theme for the upcoming Bond installment.
“Bond films are the ultimate symbol of British cinema,” a source noted. “And who better to represent that spirit than a band that defined British pride? Liam’s voice has that edge, Noel’s songwriting is pure drama — together, they could make history with a theme that’s both powerful and unforgettable.”
While the news hasn’t been officially confirmed, speculation is spreading fast. Fans are already buzzing about the possibility of an Oasis reunion, even a brief one, that could happen through music rather than a tour. Recent sightings of the Gallagher brothers together at social events in London have only added fuel to the rumors.
Interestingly, Noel Gallagher has previously expressed his desire to write for James Bond. Speaking to NME, he once said, “It’s mad that the greatest British spy has American songs! I’ve already written a few that could fit — though maybe the titles aren’t very… Bond.” His trademark humor aside, the idea now seems more realistic than ever.
If the collaboration moves forward, it would mark a cultural milestone. The Gallaghers have long embodied a working-class British ethos — confident, unapologetic, and effortlessly cool. Their signature sound, blending emotional depth with rock bravado, could bring a refreshing energy to the Bond legacy. Liam’s raw, charismatic voice paired with Noel’s melodic craft feels like the perfect recipe for a theme rich in tension, passion, and cinematic flair.
The timing also aligns perfectly with Bond’s current creative direction. The upcoming film, directed by Denis Villeneuve (Dune, Blade Runner 2049) and written by Steven Knight (Peaky Blinders), is said to explore “a more human and emotionally complex Bond,” while still preserving the grandeur and legacy of the franchise.
For producers, an Oasis Bond theme could represent a powerful cultural crossover — a statement of British identity wrapped in rock nostalgia and cinematic glamour. It would not only revive the spirit of Cool Britannia but also bridge generations of fans who grew up with both 007 and the sound of (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?.
Historically, Bond themes have featured some of the biggest names in music — from Shirley Bassey and Paul McCartney to Adele and Billie Eilish. Yet, in recent years, the franchise has leaned more toward orchestral pop and electronic influences. An Oasis-led theme could mark a dramatic tonal shift, bringing back the gritty, guitar-driven feel that once defined British music.
Beyond its musical appeal, the idea carries symbolic weight. Oasis aren’t just a band — they’re a cultural movement, a reminder of a time when British music dominated the world. Their involvement would be a nod to that legacy, blending cinematic class with unapologetic attitude.
Noel has hinted in past interviews that he’s written tracks with a “Bond vibe,” even if no one had officially reached out. “I’ve got songs that would work,” he teased years ago. If the producers finally make that call, fans might get a Bond theme that stands proudly beside Skyfall and Live and Let Die — but with a swagger only Oasis could deliver.
The potential partnership also fits with Amazon MGM’s broader mission to revitalize the Bond brand. The studio has reportedly been exploring ways to make the franchise “feel more authentic and grounded in British culture,” not just in its storytelling but also in its sound. That authenticity is exactly what the Gallaghers embody — no filters, no polish, just attitude and melody.
If confirmed, this collaboration wouldn’t just be a musical event; it would be a pop culture phenomenon. The fusion of Oasis’ Britpop legacy with the cinematic universe of James Bond feels both nostalgic and groundbreaking — a meeting of two timeless icons representing different sides of British cool.
From Don’t Look Back in Anger to Champagne Supernova, the Gallagher brothers have always captured the pulse of an era — raw emotion, rebellion, and that unmistakable British confidence. Translating that energy into a Bond theme could be the ultimate artistic reunion — not just for the band, but for the nation’s cultural heartbeat.
As one fan wrote online, “If Liam sings the next Bond theme, the world will finally make sense again.” And maybe they’re right. Because if there’s one thing both Oasis and James Bond have in common, it’s the art of being unforgettable — cool, bold, and unmistakably British.
