007 fans, we might have some good news for you.
According to The Independent, Daniel Craig, who recently was confirmed to return as the spy in the long-running series' next film, might be returning as James Bond in two new films, according to some reports.
Reports suggest that producer Barbara Broccolli is keen to bring Craig's 007 tally to six following his roles in 'Casino Royale', 'Quantum of Solace', 'Skyfall', 'Spectre' and the forthcoming 'Bond 25' that will be released in 2019.
According to a source, Barbara has reportedly managed to talk Daniel into two more films.
The source also shared, "He is loved by audiences around the world and has driven a real resurgence for the movies at the box office, so bosses knew they couldn't lose him just yet."
Despite no official confirmation, Christoph Waltz and Dave Bautista are both expected to return as villains while Naomie Harris (Miss Moneypenny), Ben Whishaw (Q) and Rory Kinnear are all set to return.
In the running to replace Sam Mendes as director following Skyfall and Spectre are Yann Demange ('71), David Mackenzie ('Hell or High Water') and 'Arrival's Denis Villenueve whose 'Blade Runner' sequel arrives in cinemas this October.
'Bond 25' will arrive in US cinemas on 8 November 2019.
