Daniel Craig Confirmed for Two More Bond Films...


Deadline has recently confirmed existing rumours that Daniel Craig will play the secret agent in at least two more Bond films, in addition to this year’s latest 007 release, Skyfall, due out in November. Craig made his debut as Bond in 2006’s Casino Royale, and has been largely lauded for his portrayal of a more human and rougher Bond. Skyfall will be the first Bond film in four years since the release of Quantum of Solace in 2008.

If Craig sees out completion of the five films that he’s committed himself to, he'll be able to call himself the third longest serving Bond—following on from Bond greats Sean Connery and Roger Moore who starred in the role seven times each.


James Bond premiere to benefit spies - 9th September 2012...

Funds raised at the world premiere of the new James Bond film will be used to help real members of Britain's security services.

Skyfall, the 23rd movie in the series, sees Daniel Craig assume the role of 007 for a third time on the big screen.

It gets its world premiere at the Royal Albert Hall in London on October 23, attended by the Prince of Wales and his wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.

Charles has asked for the screening to benefit charities that support members of the Secret Intelligence Service (MI6), the Security Service (MI5) and GCHQ.

Craig, 44, is expected to attend the premiere as well as Dame Judi Dench, who returns to the film as M.

Fellow stars Javier Bardem, Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Berenice Marlohe, Albert Finney and Ben Whishaw are also likely to walk the red carpet, as is director Sam Mendes.

Film bosses have tried to keep a lid on the plot for Skyfall, but have released tasters of the action in trailers.

Bond's loyalty to his boss M is tested to the limit as MI6 comes under attack and 007 has to trace and destroy the threat.

Producers of the film said: "We are thrilled His Royal Highness Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall have agreed to attend the world premiere of our latest James Bond film.

"(We) are pleased this event will help raise funds to support the Prince's chosen charities."

Skyfall is due to be released in the UK on October 26, and will be the first James Bond film to be released in IMAX venues.

The film's release will coincide with the franchise's 50th anniversary, which began with Dr No in 1962.

Craig played Bond in a short film, Happy And Glorious, made by the BBC and directed by Danny Boyle as part of the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics.

It saw Bond summoned to Buckingham Palace by the Queen - playing herself - before escorting her by helicopter to the Olympic Stadium.

Bond and Her Majesty then jump from the helicopter into the stadium with Union Flag parachutes.

After the film ended, the Queen reappeared and formally opened the Games.
