Last night on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Daniel Craig was asked if he would return as James Bond, 007 in Bond 25. He was happy to officially announce that yes, he will be back. He also said (although anything can happen) that he believes it is his last James Bond movie. See the clips from the BM Twitter feed below:

Sean Connery is and always will be the best and my favorite actor to portray James Bond. My favorite James Bond movie may change periodically, but I’ll always point to Connery’s iconic introduction scene from Dr. No as the true definition of James Bond. RIP.
Apparently they didn’t want to re-shoot a scene with Roger Moore hiding at the pyramids in The Spy Who Love Me (1977), and they ended up with James Bond frozen in position! 🙂

In this 30 second interstitial scene from Tomorrow Never Dies (1997), we catch the rare sight of James Bond, 007 drinking shots of vodka. And warm ones at that! Yuck!
While James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) recovers from the brawl at the Carver Media Group Network (CMGN) event, he apparently can’t find the time to mix up a traditional vodka martini, shaken not stirred. Instead, he opts for the quick numbing effects of Smirnoff vodka shots, after which ensuring the silencer is properly attached to his Walther PPK. As one does.
You may remember that Bond rips shots of tequila in Skyfall (2012) with his scorpion friend, but I think this is the only time we see him take vodka shots in the entire series. Salut!
