Daniel Craig admits 2015 comment about playing Bond again appeared ‘ungrateful’

"I thought, ‘Do I have this in me? Do I want to go through all of this?’ I needed a break."

Daniel Craig has admitted that saying he would “rather slash my wrists” than play James Bond again appeared “ungrateful” but that the comment was made as a joke.

The British star, 53, made the comment in an interview in 2015 after finishing previous 007 movie Spectre, having broken his leg during filming.
