It’s all decided folks, after the speculation that drove us mad, the new Bond has been unveiled first, but only after his Mum got too excited and leaked the news to everyone! From Yahoo:
Craig’s selection was revealed as he was whisked down the Thames River aboard a military boat to a news conference…
…”I’m speechless,” the star said, after posing for photos with producer Barbara Broccoli and director Martin Campbell.
“Daniel is a superb actor who has all the qualities needed to bring a contemporary edge to the role,” Broccoli and Campbell said in a statement…
…”I think you’d have to be stupid not to consider something like that,” he said, but added that he hadn’t given the role “any serious thought.”
The film’s producers tried to keep their decision secret, but Craig’s mother told the tabloid Sun newspaper she was “thrilled to bits.”
Brilliant, it’s made sweeter by the fact his Mum leaked the news, that’s really sweet! Back to the subject in hand though, from comments when the rumour of Craig first popped up there hasn’t been a resounding backing for him, indeed there seems to be a lot more favour out there for others, in particular Clive Owen if not Brosnan coming back.
So now it’s made, what do you think? Obviously they’ve not gone much younger than Brosnan, but is Craig the best decision? Aren’t you glad it’s all over? Now we start the story speculation!!
