Rumour has it that Daniel Craig could be 007 for a good while yet Bond producer Michael G Wilson had this to say: "I’d love Daniel to surpass Roger’s record and do eight pictures," "Daniel’s been an absolute pleasure to be around because he takes the role so seriously. There’s really no one more passionate about making these films work than him. He’s a filmmaker’s dream. A lot of people have said Daniel’s been their favourite Bond since Sean Connery and I can’t argue with them. He’s doing a great job." Fans had initially been vastly opposed to Craig taking on the role but it is fair to say the majority were won over by his performance in Casino Royale. In SkyFall the mood of the movie will be reminiscent of Bond movies past particularly the Connery era, which is sure to go down well with fans.
"The director Sam Mendes and Daniel are taking it back to a '60s feel. It's more 'Sean'," says Wilson. "I think that’s what the fans wanted. There’s a magical Goldfinger feel surrounding it all. It’s all very exciting. I can’t wait for people to see the movie. Filming's going very well so far.” For Craig to do eight movies would be monumental it is a long way off at present, although judging by Craig’s recent praise of director Sam Mendes perhaps this relationship will continue for another chapter or two.
