Daniel Craig confirms Bond 23 is due in 2011

Daniel Craig is James Bond in Quantum of Solace

In mid-October, CommanderBond.net was the first site to report on Daniel Craig’s recent comments that work was set to begin on Bond 23 towards the end of 2010. Since then, the James Bond star has confirmed his statement once more when 007 was brought up for discussion on his 29 October appearance on Live with Regis and Kelly.

While the overwhelming majority of the talkshow segment was dedicated to Craig’s performance in the Broadway play A Steady Rain opposite Hugh Jackman, as expected, the topic of his third James Bond film came up.

When asked what the plan was for the next Bond, Craig responded: ‘The plan is to start shooting the next one at the end of next year so it’ll be ready for 2011. So we’ve got a lot of work to do.’
