Daniel Craig has given a hilariously brutal response to speculation about his James Bond replacement. The 56-year-old had the longest continuous reign as the lead in the movie franchise based on the novels first released by Ian Fleming in 1953.

Former Bond star Daniel Craig has made a definitive statement on his potential 007 replacement. Questions over who will take on the iconic James Bond character continue as actors like Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Theo James are considered frontrunners.

Daniel Craig has set the record straight once and for all: he does not care who is cast as the next James Bond. The actor bowed out of the iconic spy role at the end of 2021's No Time to Die, leaving film buffs to debate who should fill his shoes next – with Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Tom Hardy among the most widely speculated contenders.

While a multitude of actors have been speculated to take over the iconic James Bond role, Daniel Craig has been asked to weigh in on the debate, but his response was a jaw-dropper.
