CRAIG REVEALS CREDIT CRUNCH WORRIES

JAMES BOND star DANIEL CRAIG is worried about the global credit crunch crisis - insisting even Hollywood superstars are not immune from its effects.
The Quantum of Solace actor is reportedly the highest paid screen star in Britain, and recently (Oct08) splashed out $5.8 million (GBP4 million) on an apartment in Regent's Park, London.
But Craig believes the film industry will soon face a money shortage as a result of the global financial problems, and is adamant it will affect everyone in the business, including himself.
He says, "Everybody's in trouble. There's going to be a cash shortage soon, because the whole point is that the movie industry, like every industry, is built upon how much money they can borrow. So if people stop sending them money, it's going to dry up.
"I don't know what the answer is. I know there's going to be a lot of job losses and it's going to be really tricky."
