After saying he’d rather “slash my wrists” than do a final Bond movie, sources say Daniel Craig is ready to sign on to return as 007 after Bond bosses decided Tom Hiddleston is “too smug and not tough enough” for the role.
Multiple sources tell Page Six that Bond franchise producer Barbara Broccoli has “just about persuaded Daniel Craig to do one more Bond movie.” This comes after Broccoli produced his hit off-Broadway production of “Othello” with David Oyelowo, which won Craig the serious acting plaudits he craved.

So after seeing Hiddleston as TOO MUCH of a douche, the producer of the franchise gave money to his Broadway show, which gave him confidence to say YES? Uh okay

This is not true. Craig has one more film in his contract so he is obligated to do one more.

Great! Let’s get it going! I’m happy to hear this as Christoph Waltz said he would come back if Craig did. Interested to see what they do with it!

If he’s coming back to just be completely wasted as he was in Spectre, then they might as well recast and reboot it.

Henry Cavill would’ve been a great Bond, he proved he can shine when given the opportunity like in Man from Uncle.

Yes, I think he’d make a great Bond, at least look-wise. I still want to see him in MI6 first.

I wonder what Loki thinks about the reasonings for why he wouldn’t make a good Bond. If true, that really shouldn’t have been made public. Yikes! LOL

Tom Hiddleston would have been a fine choice to play James Bond in my opinion. Just watch Kong: Skull Island. He was very good in the movie. He would have bring back the classic and fun back into Bond again which the Craig films has been lacking. Barbara Broccoli saying that he’s “too smug” and “not tough enough” is very unprofessional and unfair considering what people said about Daniel Craig when was cast as Bond. She crossed the line in my opinion. Tom Hiddleston shouldn’t be judged what he does in his personal life. People make mistakes and say and do a lot of dumb things. It happens in life.
