Much online e-ink has been e-spilled over the question of which actor will take up the mantle of international superspy James Bond for the 25th installment of the perennial franchise. Will incumbent star Daniel Craig return for another go-round as 007, or will he be replaced by the likes of new challengers Tom Hiddleston, Dan Stevens, Emily Blunt, or Idris Elba? Who knows (not us), but as the mission to secure a star has been playing out, another big change-up has unfolded largely in the background.
Remember way back when people criticized Daniel Craig’s casting as James Bond, with some even saying he was too blond for the role? Well, the times have changed, and with Sony searching for new some new blood to eventually fill 007’s shoes, it looks like they’re willing to pay Craig the big bucks to stick around for a few more installments.
As the credits rolled on 'Spectre', the forth movie starring Daniel Craig as James Bond, I couldn't help but think it was the last time we'll see him as 007.
'Spectre', the latest Bond film starring Daniel Craig as 007 hits theaters today. In honor of a new Bond film hitting screens, have some fun coming up with your OWN Bond movie title!
Fall movie season is also a time for blockbusters. But unlike the summer movie season, fall is also the time for serious Oscar contenders too. This balance is what makes this time of year my favorite for movies.
