Announcements for the latest film in the James Bond franchise were delayed indefinitely because of MGM's bankruptcy and Spyglass heads Gary Barber and Roger Birnbaum taking over management of the studio.
Craig made his Bond debut in the 2006 film Casino Royale, following in the footsteps of Pierce Brosnan, Timothy Dalton, Roger Moore, George Lazenby and Sean Connery.
