Bond Producers Hail New 007 Craig
By WENN| Friday, July 21, 2006
HOLLYWOOD - The producers of upcoming James Bond offering
Casino Royale have explained why they're keeping new 007
Daniel Craig on board for the next movie.
Craig, who took over the role from
Pierce Brosnan, has just signed a contract committing him to at least one more outing as the suave superspy--before his first Bond film is even released.
However, his commitment to the franchise and early glimpses of
Casino Royale have earned him the whole-hearted backing of producers Michael G. Wilson and
Barbara Broccoli.
In a statement released yesterday they say, "
Daniel has taken the origins of
Ian Fleming's James Bond portraying, with emotional complexity, a darker and edgier 007."

This movie must be pretty bad if they have to continuously praise Daniel Craig every chance they get...
