But, yeah, back at work on Monday. So it\u2019s all good, mate. It\u2019s all been going great.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The well-deserved break follows the <strong><em>Oasis Live &#8217;25<\/em><\/strong> tour, which wrapped in November.<\/p>\n<p>Noel&#8217;s brother, frontman Liam Gallagher, has already confirmed on X that Oasis won&#8217;t be doing anything in 2026.<\/p>\n<p> Noel, meanwhile, recently declared it &#8220;would be an honour&#8221; for Oasis to record the next James Bond theme song.<\/p>\n<p>The reunited rockers were recently rumoured to be favourites to be asked to put together a title song for the next 007 film &#8211; but the Britpop icon admitted they haven&#8217;t heard anything from Bond bosses at Amazon MGM studios.<\/p>\n<p>During an appearance on talkSPORT, Noel was asked about the gossip, and he replied: &#8220;This James Bond thing? What, Oasis? Nah.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When asked if he would be interested in recording a Bond theme, Noel replied: &#8220;What for Oasis to do it? Absolutely. Of course. It would be an absolute honour, and I think those kind of things should be done by Brits not Yanks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, when he was asked if Bond bosses had been in touch, Noel replied: &#8220;Nah nah nah&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>He went on to joke: &#8220;I&#8217;ll play a villain. I&#8217;ll play a Mancunian villain&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The Sun newspaper previously reported Bond bosses were keen to get Oasis on board to pen the theme tune for the next superspy movie.<\/p>\n<p>A source told the publication: &#8220;The 007 films are one of the great British franchises. And who better to record the theme song than one of the greatest ever British bands?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Liam\u2019s swagger and Noel\u2019s anthemic music would be perfect to soundtrack the new film. It is no secret that Noel is a big fan of the Bond films and he would love to have his name listed as one of the few songwriters of a Bond theme amongst greats like Sir Paul McCartney, Duran Duran and Adele.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Noel previously admitted he&#8217;d already written several songs that could be used as themes for a Bond movie.<\/p>\n<p>He told NME: &#8220;It\u2019s a p*** take that the greatest British agent of all time has to be soundtracked by a bunch of f****** Americans. I\u2019ve written a couple of Bond theme tunes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They haven\u2019t got very Bond-esque titles, so I would have to tailor the title accordingly. The latest one that I wrote, I listened back to it thinking, \u2018F****** hell man, that\u2019d make a f****** great Bond theme\u2019.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<aside class=\"related-articles\">&#13;<\/p>\n<header class=\"feed-section-title feed-section-title__embedded\">&#13;<br \/>\n                <span class=\"feed-section-title-text feed-section-title-text--small \">&#13;<br \/>\n                    Read more&#13;<br \/>\n                <\/span>&#13;<br \/>\n                <span class=\"feed-section-title-bar\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n            <\/header>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<br \/>\n        <\/aside>\n<p>&#13;\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.contactmusic.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; &#13; Noel Gallagher has revealed he&#8217;s back to work after the Christmas break and the Oasis Live &#8217;25 tour.&#13; &#13; By Lizzie Baker&#13; Monday, January 19, 2026\u00a02:37 PM &#13; By Lizzie Baker&#13; Monday, January 19, 2026\u00a02:37 PM &#13; &#13;&#13; Photo: FAMOUS&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; Noel Gallagher has returned to work after the festive break, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2241034,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[25179],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2241033","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Noel-Gallagher-confirms-return-to-work-hinting-new-music-is.webp.jpeg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2241033","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2241033"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2241033\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2241035,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2241033\/revisions\/2241035"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2241034"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2241033"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2241033"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2241033"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
