Daniel Craig May Return As James Bond

IANS, 05 Apr, 2017 12:37 PM
    Actor Daniel Craig is ready to sign on to return as fictional British Secret Service agent James Bond, pagesix.com reported.
     
    Multiple sources told the publication that Bond franchise producer Barbara Broccoli has "just about persuaded Daniel Craig to do one more Bond movie".
     
    This comes after Broccoli produced his hit off-Broadway production of "Othello" with actor-producer David Oyelowo. 
     
    A Hollywood source said: "Daniel was very pleased with how ‘Othello' went and the great reviews. Now Daniel's talks with Barbara are going in the right direction. They have a script - screenwriting duo Neal Purvis and Robert Wade (who've penned several Bond movies) are writing and they'll go into production as soon as Daniel is ready to commit."
     
    The source added: "Plus, Barbara Broccoli doesn't like Tom Hiddleston, he's a bit too smug and not tough enough to play James Bond."
     
    In 2015, Craig was asked if he'd be back again after finishing a difficult "Spectre" shoot, and replied: "I'd rather... slash my wrists... I'm over it at the moment."
     
    Another source said: "Daniel had such a good time in ‘Othello', produced by Barbara that he's ready to do a final Bond." 
     
    Representatives for Craig and Broccoli haven't commented on it.
