Yahoo Movies Daniel Craig doesn't care who replaces him as James Bond
Daniel Craig has admitted he doesn't "care" about who succeeds him as James Bond.
The actor took his final bow as 007 over three years ago in No Time to Die, though confirmation on his replacement is yet to emerge.
While speaking to Variety to promote his new movie Queer, Craig was asked: "If you were to pass the James Bond torch who would you love to see play him?"

The star replied: "I don't care."
While Craig hasn't endorsed anyone, a studio boss recently suggested that fans will have to be patient regarding who will play Bond next.
“There are a lot of ideas [about potential actors] that have popped up that I thought are interesting,” Amazon MGM Studios’ global head Jennifer Salke told The Observer. “I think there are a lot of different ways we can go.
“We have a good and close relationship with Eon and [producers] Barbara [Broccoli] and Michael [G Wilson]. We are not looking to disrupt the way those wonderful films are made. For us, we are taking their lead.

“The global audience will be patient. We don’t want too much time between films, but we are not concerned at this point.”
Earlier this year, rumours gained traction that Aaron Taylor-Johnson could be Craig's replacement, though it was later claimed by a production insider that there was "no truth in the rumours".
Taylor-Johnson later awkwardly avoided a question about the speculation during a red carpet interview.
In other news, all 25 Bond movies were recently released on Prime Video for subscribers – though 'unofficial' entries such as 1967's Casino Royale and 1983's Never Say Never Again are not available.
