Daniel Craig will again star as the iconic James Bond in the new Bond movie, "Spectre." However, there are rumors circulating that this will be Craig's last movie in the said role.
According to Gulf News, Craig's contract includes one more Bond movie after "Spectre," but the actor reportedly may choose to opt out of the franchise on a high if "Spectre" does well in the box office.
The same report notes that Damien Lewis is the leading favorite for the role of James Bond. The former "Homeland" star leads ahead other actors such as Idris Elba, who was famous for his role in the movie "The Wire," Tom Hardy, who recently starred in the action film "Mad Max: Fury Road," Henry Cavill, who is known for his role as Superman in "Man of Steel," and Michael Fassbender, who is famous as the young Magneto in the "X-men" movie series.
Meanwhile, the first telling clip from the "Spectre" has been recently released. The one-minute video revealed that James Bond is keeping a secret that he "can't tell anyone because he doesn't trust anyone." The film starts when Bond receives a cryptic message from his past, which sends him on a trail to uncover a menacing organization.
The trailers and movie clips show Bond speeding in his signature Aston Martin through the streets of Rome in a car chase with Mr. Hinx, played by Dave Batista, who is in a high-powered Jaguar. Director Sam Mendes also revealed that the opening scenes of the movie will feature Mexico's vibrant Day of the Dead festival.
According to Latin Post, the new movie has better scripts and better effects compared to the previous one. It also features plenty of gorgeous ladies. The film was shot in various countries like Rome and Morocco, but it is based in London's Pinewood Studios.
"Spectre" is set to hit U.K. theaters on October 23 and U.S. theaters on November 6. The film also stars Christoph Waltz, Ralph Fiennes, Monica Bellucci and Lea Seydoux.
