“I don’t know,” he said. “I really don’t know. Honestly. I’m not trying to be coy. At the moment I can’t even conceive it.”

When asked specifically if he would do just one more Bond film, he replied: “At this moment, no. I have a life and I’ve got to get on with it a bit. But we’ll see.”

The profile hit the Internet the same day another piece of Bond news went viral. Current 007 writer, Anthony Horowitz said in a recent interview with the Daily Mailthat The Wire’s Idris Elba, the most requested actor to replace Daniel Craig, is “too street” and not smooth enough to play James Bond. Needless to say the Internet was pissed.
