According to Daniel Craig, it would be better for an American to play the smooth talking secret agent 007 ‘James Bond’ than a British actor - bit strange as James Bond is British!.
The Hollywood heart throb, who plays James Bond for second time in ‘Quantum Of Solace’ feels that the British sense of self-mockery takes something away form the character and that ‘Brisishness’ could be the down fall of the spy character.
“I am always trying to self-mock. I am trying to put it down or to laugh it off but you have got to be careful because false humility is not a great trait,” he said.
“Sometimes I wonder if it would be easier if I was American, because I am deeply English.”
