4. Craig's favorite previous Bond actor was Sean Connery, but says, "I'd never copy somebody else. I would never do an impression of anybody else or try and improve on what they did. That would be a pointless exercise for me". His favorite Bond film is From Russia with Love.
5. Craig and the producers are in the process of making his third Bond film (the 23rd overall in the series) but on April 19, 2010, it was announced to have been suspended indefinitely due to the crippling debt and uncertain future of MGM.
