It has already been more than three years since Daniel Craig relinquished his 'licence to kill' as James Bond. Even during the search for a new one, the actor does not seem bothered by who goes on to become the next Agent 007.
He was 56 years old when he played the character for the first time in the movie Casino Royale in 2006. He appeared in four more movies, being the fifth and last one in No Time to Die in 2021, although in his fifth installment, as well: Quantum of Solace, Skyfall, and Spectre.
In a recent interview with entertainment news website *Variety*, the actor was asked which actor he would want to step into the shoes of the much-loved spy agent. "If you were to pass the James Bond torch, who would you love to see play him?" To which he only had three words to respond with: "I don't care."
They asked him to say how many times he played as an on-screen character. "I'm going to get it wrong," he said. "I'd have to count them. I don't know."
James Bond was played by previous actors Sean Connery, David Niven, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton and Pierce Brosnan. News had also circulated that some other actors have been rumored or confirmed to have been approached, though no one has come forward yet with a confirmation such as Idris Elba, Tom Hardy, Luke Evans, Richard Madden, Theo James, Henry Golding, and Cillian Murphy.
Craig is gearing up for his new romantic comedy, Queer, which will come out on February 13, 2025.
