Carver is a powerful media-tycoon who never has to search for the news because he always used to make them. Pierce Brosnan incarnates the Superspy again after his successful debut as Bond in "007: The Golden Eye"; the movie "Tomorrow never dies" keeps the tradition of involving the most intricate spy gadjets and contemporary defense technologies along with the most beautiful actresses participation (in this series, action star Michelle Yeoh, who has the "Miss Malaysia" title). Bond is to prevent the Third World War which looms closer and closer as Carver weaves his devilish plot to embroil the world's superpowers with each other using PR technologies and crimninal talents of his ally called Mr. Stamper (Gotz Otto).
The soundtrack of "Tomorrow Never Dies" is the song of the same name, brilliantly performed by Sheryl Crow, who also is an author of this heartfelt hit.
