London, UK (BBN)-James Bond boss Barbara Broccoli is determined to retain the services of Daniel Craig despite the actor’s growing hesitation to reprise the role, reports the PTI.
The British actor, 47, is still undecided about signing on for a fifth Bond film, despite the success of Spectre, after initially telling one reporter he’d rather “break this glass and slash my wrists” than play the superspy again, reported Contactmusic.
But the franchise producers are considering the next film before pre-production begins in the spring (16), and Broccoli has put Craig’s return on her Christmas wish list.
“Now everyone is asking, ‘How will it go for 007?’ I hope it continues with Craig. I think he’s great, and obviously not just me, but also the audience. I will do everything (to make sure) that he stays,” she said.
