Craig reprises the role of the playboy MI6 secret agent in the upcoming 24thJames Bond film, as will Skyfall director Sam Mendes who recently took a break from making films to focus in stage theater production. The director decided to accept the film after a series of offers from the producers of the franchise.
Mendes, was able to shed some light on what the story would be in Bond's upcoming installment, as he told Vulture:
"Hopefully we'll reclaim some of the old irony, and make sure it doesn't become pastiche. I can't do shtick; I'm not very good at it. Unless it kind of suddenly makes sense. Does that make sense? I sometimes wish I hammed it up more, but I just can't do it very well, so I don't do it."
Also slated to return are 007's fellow agents MI6 secretary Miss Moneypenny (Naomie Harris), weapons and gadgets wizard "Q" and Ralph Fiennes who could possibly serve as the new "M", who will serve as Daniel Craig's Bond's boss in future films.
