Drew Pearce's two drafts thus far have incorporated a lot of elements from his work on the Mission: Impossible series. There's a lot of location-hopping, Bond has some supporting characters that form a "team" of sorts around him and there's an emphasis on stunts. Bond's characterization is very different from anything that has come before. He goes off-grid and participates in illegal underground MMA matches to gather underworld intel. There's three Bond girls and the villain group is very reminiscent of the villains in the fifth and six Mission movies. The aim is to clearly ape the M:I films and John Wick given the emphasis on gunplay and the frequency of the action. Also, there's a reference to Bond being in Afghanistan as a soldier.
