The next James Bond movie “Spectre” will get a royal reception, premiering before the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry at the Royal Albert Hall on Monday, Oct. 26.

The debut was announced Wednesday by Albert R. Broccoli’s EON Productions, MGM and Sony Pictures. “Spectre” is the 24th Bond film and the third Bond movie chosen for the Royal Film Performance since its inception in 1946.

“Spectre” will open on the same night at cinemas across the U.K. and Ireland and begin its rollout in territories around the world. The film will open in North America on Nov. 6.

The premiere will also be attended by the film’s leading actors Daniel Craig, Christoph Waltz, Léa Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, David Bautista, Monica Bellucci, and Ralph Fiennes. The cast will also be joined on the red carpet by director Sam Mendes and producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli.

The Royal Film Performance is held each year to benefit the Cinema and Television Benevolent Fund, the charity for the U.K. film, cinema and commercial television industries, dedicated to providing support for those working behind-the-scenes in times of hardship.
