Daniel Craig reveals why he chose to return as James Bond for No Time To Die

The British actor Daniel Craig said he had some unfinished business with the franchise

No Time To Die will mark the last film Daniel Craig appears as James Bond. Though his last Bond film, Spectre was rumoured to be his final Bond movie, Craig chose to return as 007 in the upcoming film. 

Craig said he had some unfinished business with the James Bond franchise that made him come back as the famed British spy one last time.

The actor added that though Spectre had a perfect ending, the film did not give him a proper closure in terms of the story.

"If that had been it, the world would have carried on as normal, and I would have been absolutely fine. But somehow it felt like we needed to finish something off. If I'd left it at Spectre, something at the back of my head would have been going, 'I wish I'd done one more'," the actor said in an interview.

"I always had a kind of secret idea about the whole lot in my head, and where I wanted to take it. And Spectre wasn't that. But this feels like it is," he added. 

Craig, who took over the role of the suave 007 agent from Pierce Brosnan, has so far featured in four Bond films - Casino Royale (2006), Quantum of Solace (2008), Skyfall (2012) and Spectre (2015).
