James Bond actor reportedly warned by Sony executives to stop being critical of SPECTRE after he said he would rather 'slash his wrists' than do another Bond film
Daniel Craig has been warned by Sony executives to "shut up" and "stop bashing" James Bond, according to reports, after the star said he would rather "slash his wrists" than do another film.
The actor, who will reprise his role as the British spy for the fourth time in the forthcoming film, told Time Out magazine he wanted to "move on" from the franchise.

Good, it’ll make him look more pissed off in the film itself. He is an angry Bond.
To: Perdogg
He isn’t the first (see Sean Connery) and probably won’t be the last.

He was shooting Spectre for eight months and said that he would rather “slash his wrist” than think about another Bond film right now. Given the over $1 billion Skyfall made I'm sure that, though Sony might not be happy with his comments, they won't be willing to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

You know, to quote The Devil Wears Prada, “anyone would give anything to have that job” (paraphrased) and yet a lib schmuck who really isn’t as hot as Connery is pissing on this opportunity...and I loved Casino Royale....

I read where Craig say about a year ago that the Bond of Spectre was going to be a little more light hearted. More akin to Roger Moore’s Bond.

Never understood the short, goofy looking Craig was ever selected for the role.

Bond jumped the shark back around 1970. They have all sucked since then tho Craig’s Bond didn’t suck quite as bad as some of the others.
He still sucked tho.

The franchise has made Craig fabulously wealthy & famous, and he now bites the hand that feeds him b/c he believes he’s too good for the role. Anybody checked his hormone levels...could be the first poofter to play Bond.
To: matginzac
After an 8 month shoot pretty much everybody tied to a movie is sick of it. Give it 2 years he’ll probably sing a different tune.

He had a pretty solid career before bond. And he didn’t say anything about being too good for it, just not wanting to do it anymore. Plenty of people have gotten sick of playing Bond.

Yeah, yeah, poor Craig, getting filthy rich and famous, but damnit he has to use those disgusting guns and the films are so violent! All he wants to do is make important films like Cowboys and Aliens.....no, lot's of guns and violence there too, maybe nice liberal films, you know like Redford!
Amazing another anti gun anti violence liberal who's entire career has been the making of violent movies mostly, and mostly all with guns in them.

I'll watch the second season premiere of "The Knick" this week and imagine what might've been with the man who should be playing Bond now...
