Tabloids wildly speculate Daniel Craig may only make one more James Bond film

Hats off the the tabloid press as once again they have extrapolated a story out of a fairly innocuous quote from a James Bond actor - on an otherwise quiet news day for 007.

The Sun (UK) today claim "Daniel Craig has left fans shaken and stirred by hinting he may quit as Bond after the next film."

The paper quotes Craig as saying "I don’t want to make just spy films. I’ve never made movies for money."

From that they stretched the headline to read that it was only "1 more 007 film for Daniel"

Although Eon Productions gave "no comment" to questions about Craig's length of contract, the 39 year-old actor confirmed during several interviews at the time of Casino Royale's release that he had signed up to make three films. "I've signed up for two more, and then I can get on with my life!" he said last year. An official announcement about Bond 22 also included this figure. Press has separately stated he is getting £8million for the three films.

Far from thinking about 007 #7, producer Michael G. Wilson said in a radio interview recently that "once we establish someone in the role we like to keep going with them, and we do intend to make plenty with Daniel. Oh, but you can never say how many at this stage, but surely a lot more."

Thanks to `Bounine` for the alert.
