DANIEL CRAIG - DANIEL CRAIG TO STAY AS JAMES BOND 'UNTIL JOINTS GO'

Daniel Craig said he will keep playing James Bond 'until my joints go' in an interview.

The Casino Royale star told the Sun newspaper: "Until my joints go I will keep going as Bond. I have no intention of giving up just yet."

There had been speculation Craig, who has signed a three-movie deal to play Bond, would quit after fulfilling his contract.

The 40-year-old actor, who has also starred in British gangster film Layer Cake and The Golden Compass, is currently filming his second Bond film, Quantum of Solace.

The new film continues where Casino Royale left off and also starS French actor Mathieu Amalric as villain Dominic Greene.

Craig is also rumoured to be engaged to girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell, but refused to confirm the news, telling the Sun: "It's a very important moment in a person's life. I wouldn't make an official announcement because I am not a member of the Royal Family."

Casino Royale was the highest grossing Bond ever - taking £325 million globally.
