Facts from the source article.
Background
Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli produced it; it was the first Bond film made after the death of producer Albert R. Broccoli, to whom it is dedicated in the end credits, and the last released under the United Artists label. It was shot in France, Thailand, Germany, Mexico and the United Kingdom. The film grossed more than $339 million worldwide, the fourth-highest of 1997, and earned a Golden Globe nomination. Reviews were mixed on release, but later looks back have noted how it anticipated the spread and dangers of fake news. It was the only Brosnan Bond film not to open at number one in the US, having opened the same day as Titanic.
