FANS of Daniel Craig should savor his performance as James Bond in the upcoming “No Time to Die” as if it was a perfectly-made martini. Why? Because in an appearance on Friday night’s “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” the actor confirmed that his latest 007 adventure would also be his last. Asked by host Colbert if Craig was “done with Bond,” the “Knives Out” star replied “Yes” and “It’s done.” Of course, this isn’t the first time Craig has claimed to be finished with the franchise. In a 2015 interview with Britain’s “Time Out,” the actor strongly hinted that he wold not be returning to the series, only to change his mind and sign up for “No Time to Die.” In the course of his “Colbert” appearance, Craig also talked about why he had suggested “Fleabag” and “Killing Eve” writer Phoebe Waller-Bridge should be brought on to work on the “No Time to Die” script. “I knew she was great from ‘Fleabag,’” said the actor. “But I watched ‘Killing Eve,’ and I saw what she did with that, and I just thought it was just spectacular.” Finally, Craig confirmed that he had kissed his “No Time to Die” costar Rami Malek after they had worked out how to play a tricky scene. “No Time to Die” will be released in the U.S. on April 8, 2020.
