Craig denies Bond sequel

Daniel Craig has denied the next 007 will be a sequel to 'Quantum of Solace'.

The latest superspy picture - which followed on from Craig's debut in 2006's Casino Royale - has been a major international hit, scoring high in box office charts the world over.

But Craig is adamant that his third outing as the secret agent will feature a brand new storyline.

He tells Collider: "No way. I'm done with that story. I want to lie on a beach for the first half an hour of the next movie drinking a cocktail.

"We've finished this story as far as I'm concerned. We've got a great set of bad guys. There is an organisation that we can use whenever we want to. The relationship between Bond and M is secure and Felix is secure. Let's try and find where Moneypenny came from and where Q comes from. Let's do all that and have some fun with it."

But Craig admits there is currently no filming schedule in place for the next Bond movie.

He adds: "Nobody's thinking about it at the moment. We're giving it a rest for the moment. If I can squeeze something in next year I will... but I haven't figured out what that'll be yet. But nothing in the cold."
