007 actor Daniel Craig has reportedly been told to 'shut up' and to stop bashing the popular movie franchise.
Craig's animosity towards the popular franchise was brought on by the difficulties involved in the latest film.
The
British actor - who reprises his role as the British secret service
agent in the upcoming Bond film Spectre - made the claim when he was
asked whether he would be back for a fifth movie.
'I’d rather break this glass and slash my wrists,' he said during an interview with London's Time Out magazine. 'We’re done. All I want to do is move on,' the 47-year-old actor added.
He
was paid $10.7 million for Skyfall, making him the highest-paid Bond
actor ever, and the film was the first Bond movie to break the one
billion dollar mark.
After
the success of Skyfall it was reported he brokered a deal to be paid
£31 million for his next two 007 films, including the
soon-to-be-released Spectre, the 24th film in the franchise.
A
source claimed: 'They had problems initially with the script, Craig was
injured on the set and needed knee surgery, and they were still doing
re-shoots last month, even though the movie is out in weeks. It was a
very difficult shoot, to say the least."
However,
it's not just Spectre bosses that are unimpressed with Craig's attitude
as
'Grey's Anatomy' actress Ellen Pompeo wrote on Twitter that, ‘this
dude needs a reality check, after hearing about his remark.
‘Craig
is pretentious and thinks he's better than Bond, that it doesn't give
him the creative range he needs,’ a Hollywood insider told PageSix.
‘Plus he hasn't had a big hit movie outside of the franchise, and he
blames that on Bond.’
