For all of us who were shaken and stirred when the dashing Daniel Craig took over as Special Agent 007, good news: Craig, who was initially reluctant about committing to a long run as Bond ... James Bond, has reportedly signed on for at least four more films in the multi-million dollar franchise, netting a hefty paycheck ($60 million) in the process. Looks like it wasn't that hard for him to renew his license to kill after all (OK, I know, enough with the Bond clichés.)
This is, of course, great news, as Craig was key to revitalizing the series with Casino Royale, easily one of the best Bond movies of all time. He is currently filming his second adventure as the super spy, and will next be seen onscreen in the anticipated holiday fantasy epic, The Golden Compass, which also has potential for a multi-movie run.
Also (possibly) on board for Bond 22: the Finnish rock band H.I.M. may provide the next theme song. Yeah, I have no idea who they are either, but I didn't know who Chris Cornell was before his Casino song, and I totally dug that one (and I wasn't the only one).
