It’s official, James Bond will be played again by Daniel Craig. While on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, Craig confirmed that he would be returning to the iconic role. During the interview Daniel Craig not only announced his return as 007, but also explained some of the context of his less than positive statements about the franchise. Basically it all summed up to a weak moment after a very tiring shoot on Spectre.

Contrary to some other reports, Craig also confirmed that this would be his final James Bond film.
“I think this is it. I just want to go out on a high note,” he added. “I can’t wait.”
Daniel Craig took over the role of James Bond in 2006 for Casino Royale. The two most recent films, Skyfall and Spectre brought in $1.1 billion and $880 million.
