Daniel Craig to be replaced as Bond?
Development on Bond 23 is moving forward with Sam Mendes serving as director, and Daniel Craig returning once more as James Bond. However, this may be the last time we see Craig in the role. The Pittsburgh Examiner is saying that MGM is looking to replace Craig after a few behind-the-scenes problems on the previous two Bond films, and the studio could be looking to replace him for Bond 24. Actor Clive Owen (Sin City, Shoot-em Up) is said to be the front-runner as Craig’s replacement.
Although, this should be taken strictly has just a wild rumor for right now. The site has been known to spread wild rumors such as The Joker appearing in The Dark Knight Rises (here), Harrison Ford wanting Indiana Jones to be killed off (here), and most recently with the rumor that two Godzilla films were in the works (here). All of which were shot down. Although, Craig’s involvement with Sony’s upcoming remakes for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and The Girl Who Played With Fire could keep Craig away from Bond 24.

I hope that’s all it is, Craig is a great Bond.
Like to see him do at least three more films.
