Daniel Craig is today’s next Bond

DanielCraig.jpgLook, I’m really sorry, I know many of you out there are sick fed up of the Bond rumours and I have to agree with you, it’s a complete fiasco. However, this one seems quite strong, and I pray to God it’s the last one before the Studio get their bums into gear and announce.

The Guardian reporting from the UK newspaper The Sun, says there is a Bond other than Brosnan. Oh lord save us. Like you’ve never heard this before, but it’s already been decided. Daniel Craig, he of Layer Cake, Tomb Raider, and the upcoming Spielberg Munich Olympics movie.

According to the Sun, Craig, 37, has been offered a three-film deal by producer Barbara Broccoli – a commitment which could mean his spending the next 10 years in the role, a chore said to be worth a cool √Ǭ£15m…

…The race to find the sixth Bond started about 18 months ago when producers Broccoli and Michael Wilson told incumbent Brosnan that he was too old to continue. The Sun reports that the choice had come down to Craig and Clive Owen. However, Owen had told casting agents he did not want the job as he feared it might limit his career.

Meanwhile, the BBC have everything still unconfirmed and the studio tightlipped.

A spokesperson for production company Eon said: “We’re waiting for our director to finish the film he’s currently working on.

“Then I’m sure we’ll be commenting a lot on all sorts of things.”…

…A spokesperson for Craig also declined to comment.

Please let it be over. Mustering the energy to continue though, Craig does suit the role quite well. Age, build, looks, accent, etc. Really though, I find it hard to care.
