What would make Craig quit Bond?

Post by carl stromberg »

What would make Daniel Craig quit Bond?

Will he get bored with churning out uninspired Bond films that do not receive the same critical success as Casino Royale?

Will he get bored with the physical aspect of making a Bond film?

Will he have lots of other things to do, and feel that two or three Bonds are enough?
Bring back Bond!

I suspect he'll just want to do other things and move on.

Favorite Bond Movie: The Dark Knight Trilogy, Mission: Impossible, Kingsman: The Secret Service and The November Man or any upcoming actioners starring Pierce Brosnan (no, it's not James Bond which is good since it will help him expand his reputation as an actor especially in the action realm)

It would be interesting if he does a sequel to the upcoming Star Trek prequel.

i suspect Kristatos is right. i think he is looking for the first non bond film he can surf to some small measure of success.
also like carl said cranking out uninspired films and the physical aspect . Physical aspect is eating his lunch right now and won't be getting any easier.

I'm hoping he only does two or three (unless I suddenly start enjoying his Bond).

He may be underachieving if he just churns out four or five Bonds for the cash, and I hope he gets bored with it soon.

I think if we found out that that he'd killed several people in real life he'd probably have to move on.

I'm starting to wish for him to have at least one hit outside of Bond. If he had some success away from Babs it might encourage him to move on sooner rather than later.

100 bucks says BJ will kidnap and toss Craig into an abandoned well and not release him until EON chooses another Bond.

I guess we need to look into framing him then. :idea:

I think a life time promise of shoe lifts so he can stand head and shoulders above his leading ladies, thous giving him an illusion of height would surfice in tempting him away from Bond! :lol:

I waited for the trailer to come out before deciding what to think about about this new film. To me it looks like a dozen over action films like ahem..... Jason Bourne!!! The shot were Craig comes over with bloody huge gun, i thought to myself this is a far removed from Ian Fleming and the previous films as you can get. They should pay the author of the Bourne novels royalties for ripping his character off!
