The end of a long soap opera surrounding James Bond and Daniel Craig…
2 years that it lasted this story! Since October 2015 and the (painful) promotion of Spectre, Daniel Craig has always sown doubt about his participation in the 25th opus of the James Bond saga. Lassitude, salary increase, physical condition incompatible with the standing demanded by the spy; So many reasons that could explain why the British had seen fit to hide in silence. But since last month and the announcement made by the New York Times announcing him as a buyer of the tuxedo, we have come to watch for this moment when the British would expand on the subject and confirm or not his return in the sapes of Her Majesty's spy. And now our prayers have been answered. On the sidelines of the promotion of Logan Lucky (Steven Soderbergh) where he plays an ex-taulard specialized in bank robberies and dubious hair tastes, the actor has indeed passed on the set of Stephen Colbert (editor's note: famous talk show across the Atlantic). One thing led to another, the presenter saw fit to ask THE question that everyone wanted to ask: would he reprise the role?

The rest, we know it now: The actor, true to himself, cracks a meager "yes" but it would be blind not to see behind this word, a big relief and especially impatience on the part of the one who wears the costume for 12 years already. In short, you will understand, we can count on Daniel Craig for the 25th opus of the saga. It remains to find a director and a whole bunch of exotic places so that this new opus is the image of what Craig wants for this film: the apotheosis!
James Bond 25 will be released on November 8, 2019!
