JAMES BOND star Daniel Craig is ready to bare all in his first film as 007.
Craig, 37, told movie bosses he would not only show his bottom - but was happy to do the Full Monty.
The star of Casino Royale said: "In today's world we expect female actresses to go naked so why not men?
"I have told bosses I'm prepared to do a full frontal scene. I'm not shy and Bond wouldn't be shy about it either."
The blond actor has come in for criticism from die-hard Bond fans who don't think he is tough enough. They prefer his predecessor, dark-haired actor Pierce Brosnan, 52.
Craig is now filming Casino Royale - the secret agent's 21st adventure in the Bahamas.
And he's been spotted sporting bruises and grazes after chasing a suicide bomber.
But he has had a few setbacks getting to grips with his tough action hero role. He had two teeth knocked out shooting a fight scene in Prague.
And he revealed he can only drive an automatic - so Bond's traditional Aston Martin DB5 reportedly had to be converted.
Craig also confessed he doesn't like guns and speedboats make him feel queasy.
Brosnan told him: "I've had my face sliced open by a stuntman and a knee injury. But it's all part and parcel of being Bond."
Fans have set up a website demanding the return of Brosnan, The movie is due to open in November.
" speedboats make him feel queasy" --- what a dweeb.
Can't drive a stick? Geez Louise...
I guess he wants to suck in the queers to see the movie.
Haa, haa... The Keywords sums this article up nicely.
Daniel Craig, meet George Lazenby. George, meet Daniel.
Oh yea. It's not about what he wants but what the public wants. Pants .
I never knew James Bond was a metrosexual. This guy looks queer.
How can a short, blond actor with the rough face of a professional boxer and a penchant for playing killers, cranks, cads and gigolos pull off the role of a tall, dark, handsome and suave secret agent?

That's him? Moneypenny know about this?
Easily queasy, no front teeth, can't drive a stick---
exactly who is asking to see this guy naked?
Personally I prefer the Bourne movies to the Bond movies. They're more real, gritty and don't rely on the latest silly gadgets for escaping situations.
LOL................ some say he's a good actor.............. he better be if he's playing a suave lady's man like Sean Connery.
I think he is.
I hear you!
Let's just get Catherine Zeta Jones to play Bond............. I'd be bonded forever.
Metro-roids?
Let's be honest................. that body looks way to much like AN EFFORT! Not at all the cool, natural Sean Connery real man's body.
I heard this on the radio today, and all I can say it that is is completely unnecessary. KEEP YOUR PANTS ON DUDE!
Howard Stern used to say that Pierce had the body of a woman, that applies even more to Craig.
