Daniel Craig has reportedly agreed to reprise his iconic role in the upcoming film “Bond 25.” His character as Agent 007 was seen last 2015 in the movie “Spectre.” It was the last James Bond film that he portrayed since 2006.
Ever since “Spectre” ended, the doubts, if he would play the role for another James Bond movie has emerged. Several actors have been involved in replacing his roles such as Tom Hiddleston and Theo James. Two years have passed since the last film was released but he barely commented anything about his potential return, leaving fans in doubt.
Of course, several questions popped up whether he will star or not, as reports continue to pin the actors that will allegedly take his place once he leaves the franchise.
Is Daniel Craig ready to play 007 again?
Due to the 49-year-old actor’s lack of interest towards the movie, conclusions that he may not return for the film rose. Aside from the earlier mentioned “Avengers” and “Divergent” actor, other male stars who were involved in doing Craig’s part are Aiden Turner, Damian Lewis; Idris Elba and James Norton. However, it seems like they have to wait much longer for the highly coveted role to be in their hands.
According to Screen Rant, Daniel Craig had an agreement with producer Barbara Broccoli and decided to portray the role.
This comes with a condition that they will not be filming the movie until next year. Therefore, “Bond 25” will likely be released in 2019.

As Mirror UK reported, the source, who is allegedly close to the project said, “Craig and Adele together are the winning team, the ultimate choice, and the money spinners.” The source adds Craig has come to his senses to properly settled the consensus.
While Adele is an unknown aspect of the movie, the outlet says she loves participating in whatever way for the film.
