He said he would rather slash his wrist than play James Bond a fifth time. I thought that was a little extreme… But still, it’s SWOON-TIME folks … Daniel Craig will play Bond in at least one more film, which will be released in November 2019.
OO(7)-er!
Back in September, reports suggested Daniel was on the verge of signing up as 007 again and now the New York Times has claimed Craig will be back in Bondage at least one more time.
The handsome star will reportedly reprise his role in late 2019 when the next film in the franchise hits cinemas.
News that Craig is set to sign on the dotted line for a fifth time comes after a number of high-profile Brits were tipped to replace him.
A source previously told the Sunday Mirror: “It’s taken time but Daniel has come round and the strong consensus in the Bond office is that Mr Craig is 007 again.”
Meanwhile Bond producer Barbara Broccoli is just as determined to get Skyfall singer Adele– who is said to be returning to live in the UK after growing homesick in America – back to record a second Bond theme tune.
The song from the 2012 movie was the first Bond theme tune to win at the Brits and Grammy Awards, as well as the Golden Globes.
The source, who is close to the “Bond25” project, added: “Craig and Adele together are the winning team, the ultimate choice, the money spinners.
“[Adele is] more of an unknown quantity but loved being part of Bond, so the signs are positive.”
The insider also claimed Daniel’s wife, actress Rachel Weisz, is “on board with the decision” for him to return to the iconic role, even if it means spending a year away from home filming.
Yippeeeeee!
