To get mixed with with a man who says "never"
Daniel Craig has ruled out making a Sean Connery-esque return to the role of James Bond. In 1983, Sir Sean reprised his role as 007 in the non-Eon Bond film, Never Say Never Again, in an apparent two fingers up to Cubby Broccoli. The Scot felt the producer never paid him enough money.
At 53 years old, Sean needed a toupee to cover a much broader area than the ones he wore in his first six outings as James Bond. The title of the film was inspired by Sean's answer to if he'd ever play Bond again after 1971's Diamonds Are Forever, to which he replied:
"Never again".
It appears that Daniel will bow out with more dignity than some of his predecessors, including Roger Moore, who was 57 during his swansong, A View to a Kill.
"Nope, definitely not", he declared.
