Google news: Daniel Craig is reportedly reconsidering his previous claim that No Time To Die would be his last James Bond film and may return for a sixth installment. The actor, 52, has reportedly told his PR team not to market the film as his last outing as 007, despite previously claiming he was done with the action franchise.
I guess the money would be too great to turn down. I suspect if NTTD does big box office he'll come back but perhaps Bond 26 will be released in 2023. I doubt they'll be another five year gap.

I thought he was being replaced by a black woman?

No they played with the idea and people werent on board with it. As we all know, Hollywood likes to virtue signal but if it comes to money, they usually dont fuck around. As for Craig, if he really isnt happy playing Bond he should really step down. I mean how many millions does one person need?

That's great news. I hope Craig does at least 2 or 3 more. He's the best Bond.

2 or 3 more? Daniel Craig is already too old, they may as well pick the person in your avatar.

Meh. I see ancient geriatrics cast as detectives and feds in movies all the time. Isn't Liam Neeson still doing action films? He's 67 IRL.

It's true. They're notoriously difficult to work with, if they even show up to work.

That's totally fine for a d ick or fed who doesn't have to actually do chase scenes or stunts.
Is he? He seriously can't be doing too much action- stunt double.

There is a scene in his last Taken film where he is supposed to jump over a fence. The shot is probably around 10 seconds long...it has like 6 different edits in it! So yeah, hes pretty old and cant do much.

Craig is only 52 and in shape. They have Pierce Brosnan and Neeson doing crazy as/s/ stuff into their 60's.

He's looking pretty good for his age. Here are some recent photos (scroll down).

Yes his body does look pretty good for a 52 year old, and there is some filtering/photo shopping involved as usual , the fact remains he is still NOT a young man anymore. IMO too old for Bond. Get someone young and fresh faced.

...and they all too old to make believable action movies- even with the stunt double it's still unbelievable.

Roger Moore was 57 during the filming of A View To A Kill in 1984 and its release in summer 1985. Accepting that a lot of the action would be done by stuntmen and not Moore, he could he could have done one more Bond film age 60? I reckon so, but it was time for a new younger actor and along came Timothy Dalton.
