6 Reasons Daniel Craig Will (Probably) Do Another James Bond Movie
4. The Money He's Being Offered Is Ridiculous
If the rumoured amounts that Craig is being offered keep growing at the rate they have been then Bond 25 could have the largest budget of all-time based on acting costs alone; a few months ago it was reported Craig turned down £68 million ($90 million) and now Sony's batting back with $150 mil, an eye-watering amount greater than what some Bond villains are after.
Not to be overly cynical, but everyone does have their price and it's certainly plausible that Sony are reaching close to Craig's. Think of a job you didn't like and imagine getting paid four times more (Craig's reportedly netted $38 million from his first four Bonds) for less than half the work. Which way would you go? Yeah, thought so.
That's not to say money is everything, just that the amounts being tossed around are so overwhelming it'll take strong mettle to keep refusing it.
