## Transcript

To be, or not to be. That's the question for one Daniel Craig, who seems unable to make up his mind on whether he wants to continue playing James Bond. Bond. James Bond. We've noticed that in the past few months, the actor seems to be All over the place in his decision. You noticed. In the past, Craig has said he couldn't imagine doing another Bond film. After all, Spectre will be the fourth Bond film for the star since his 007 debut in 2006's Casino Royale. But he's also gushed over the once- in- a- lifetime role. I literally have to pinch myself. In an interview with Event Magazine in September, he could only say great things.

He told the magazine, he gets a kick out of doing it. Among the gushing, he discussed his future with the franchise, noting he's contracted for one more film after SPECTRE, but he's quote, not going to make predictions, because if you don't get excited about making a movie of this size, then go home. 007, reporting for duty. Huh, interesting. Because not even two weeks after that story was published, Craig is singing a different tune. He told Time Out London in an article published October 7 he would " rather break this glass and slash his wrists" than do another Bond movie. Maybe. Okay, those are some pretty intense emotions.

We should also note he spoke about his five film obligation in the past tense, saying he was contracted for a fifth film. He makes it seem like that might be up in the air since Sony wanted to film it back to back with Spectre and he didn't. Craig also said if he starred in the 25th installment of the franchise it would only be for the money. That's quite the flip flop from his event magazine interview. We should also probably point out that he's been down this I'm totally over Bond road before. He told Rolling Stone in 2012 he's be trying to get out of this From the very moment he got into it.

But also he had this exchange with the reporter in 2012. Is it still as cool as the first time? Yeah, it's better [ UNKNOWN ] I think. Yeah, I'm enjoying it much more. So, maybe either this is just a phase he goes through after finishing a Bond film. After all he did just wreck $ 37 million worth of aston martins during filming. Would you want to dive back into another action film after that? You must be joking.
