007 - licence to kill himself
Daniel Craig has said he would rather "slash my wrists" than do another James Bond film. The star, who will reprise his role as the British spy for the fourth time in the forthcoming Spectre movie, told Time Out magazine he wanted to "move on" from the franchise.If he were to do another 007 film it would "only be for the money".The Sun reports that Craig will earn around R900-million for 007's latest adventure, including salary, endorsements and profit share - more than the combined earnings of all the men who have taken on the role.When asked by Time Out whether he could imagine doing another Bond movie, he said:"Now? I'd rather break this glass and slash my wrists. No, not at the moment. Not at all. That's fine. I'm over it at the moment. We're done. All I want to do is move on."Craig said he had not given "any thought" to what he would do next.To a potential successor, Craig said his advice would be "embrace it".Spectre reunites Craig with director Sam Mendes after 2012's Skyfall became the highest-grossing Bond film. Naomie Harris, Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw and Rory Kinnear are back, with newcomers Christoph Waltz, Andrew Scott and Bond girls Lea Seydoux, Monica Bellucci and Stephanie Sigman. - © The Daily Telegraph..
