JAMES Bond fans and Daniel Craig enthusiasts need not worry, the 44-year-old actor is here to stay as the British spy for at least two more flms.
The actor may have Casino Royale, Quantum Of Solace and now Skyfall under his tuxedo trouser belt, but he will soon become the third-longest serving Bond behind Sean Connery and Roger Moore.
Craig, Judi Dench will make her seventh appearance as Bond’s commanding offcer, M. Ben Whishaw will make his debut as gadget guru Q, while Javier Bardem will appear as the main villain.
Sir Roger Moore, who played Bond from 1973 to 1985, dubbed Craig ‘the best Bond ever’, stating that the latest flm shows ‘the best acting and the best build’ of any actor to play James Bond.
The makers of the 007 movies recently announced plans to celebrate the franchise’s 50th anniversary with a Global James Bond Day on October 5. The frst Bond flm, Dr No, had its world premiere on the same date in 1962.
