While the fan community continues to prep Idris Elba as the next 007, current James Bond, Daniel Craig, says he’s considering handing in his keys to the MI6 minibar after this year’s “Spectre”.

“At this moment, no”, Craig tells Esquire when asked if he’s ready for another go-round as the world’s most famous spy. “I have a life and I’ve got to get on with it a bit. But we’ll see… I don’t know. I really don’t know. Honestly. I’m not trying to be coy. At the moment I can’t even conceive it.”

Er, he’s tired. Ask him in six months.

“Spectre”, released in November, is garnering great buzz. Craig himself says he believes it’s a better film – hard to imagine though – than the last installment, “Skyfall”.

“I feel like we’ve all done our absolute f–king best and that’s a good feeling… It’s Skyfall times 10.”

I don't know about Bond being black? How you even explain that?

I thought I saw something saying that Tom Hardy was in the running as well. Or did I imagine that?

You did, but that was a while back.

I'm not sure of Idris Elba becoming Bond. From what I seen of him in that detective type show he did (forgotten it's name), he's a fantastic actor, but I don't think he's 'Bond' enough for the part. Craig made the character a little more rugged than was the norm, but he still kept the Bondish elements. I don't imagine him being a ladies man, for example.

And what Moose said too. The films all tie together now, unlike before, so it'd be actually impossible to explain the skin colour change. I know everyone accepts when an actor switches in the role, as that can't be helped, but I think that might be a step a tad far. I'd have him as one of the other Double 0 agents, in a secondary role, one where he keeps appearing. I think that would be a cool direction to go, as it's never been really done before.
