Daniel Craig To Quit James Bond Role For 'Purity'?

Darpan News Desk IANS, 16 Feb, 2016 01:10 PM
    Actor Daniel Craig, who has portrayed the legendary James Bond role for nearly a decade, may leave the character for a character in American television Series “Purity”.
     
    Craig won't have time to reprise his role as the secret agent as “Purity”, which will be the adaptation of Jonathan Franzen's novel, is expected to run for several series, reports dailymail.co.uk.
     
    Earlier, the actor had dropped hints of bidding goodbye to James Bond prior to the release of the franchise's 24th instalment “Spectre” last year.
     
    "I'd rather break this glass and slash my wrists. No, not at the moment. Not at all. That's fine. I'm over it at the moment. We're done. All I want to do is move on,” Craig was quoted by The Sun newspaper as saying.
     
    However, Craig had recently claimed that he may not be able to leave just yet as he had signed a contract that requires him to make another film.
