British actor Daniel Craig has said he was not going to be the next James Bond, following a flurry of stories today claiming he had won the part reports The Statesman.
The Sun today claimed that Craig had been offered a three-film deal by producer Barbara Broccoli starting with the upcoming "Casino Royale". A spokeswoman for the star denied the reports but wouldn't comment further. Eon Productions, which makes the Bond movies, also refused to comment.
BBC News has been fed up with all the speculation and spoke with Eon directly, asking when in the world they will comment on this latest talk. Their official response - "We're waiting for our director [Martin Campbell] to finish the film he's currently working on [The Lgend of Zorro]. Then I'm sure we'll be commenting a lot on all sorts of things" said a spokesperson.
Thanks to 'Eric' & 'Paul'.
