Daniel Craig talks about his fitness obsession

02-Oct-2008 • Actor News

James Bond star Daniel Craig is obsessed with keeping fit, but insists he will stop soon so that he can get "fat and old" - reports The Daily Star.

The actor - who appeared in his first Bond film, Casino Royale, clad only in tight swimming trunks - is happy with his lean figure, and eats three meals a day.

But the star confesses that he will soon give up his fitness regime - because he is getting too old to keep it up.

He tells Britain's GQ magazine, "You have to be psychologically happy to do a movie like this and I genuinely don't diet.

"I eat a full breakfast, full lunch, full dinner and once or twice a week I might even drink Guinness and red wine and all that stuff. Otherwise you go insane. You get into a stupid place. I'm obsessive enough about getting fit, it's ridiculous.

"I'm 40 now and I've got to stop doing it soon. I have to start getting fat and old."
