Craig Told Brosnan He Was No Longer Bond…. Daniel Craig broke Pierce Brosnan’s heart when he told the Irishman he had been dropped as James Bond at an awards ceremony in February (06). Craig had been offered the coveted 007 role and was sure producers had already informed Brosnan his four-movie run as Bond had come to an end – but they hadn’t. He recalls, "I said, ‘Look, this is a possibility, what do you think?’ "I don’t know if I gave him much choice, but he said, ‘Go for it.’ (I can’t believe) he didn’t hit me."

A blaze erupted Sunday on the set of the latest James Bond movie west of London, but no injuries were reported, fire officials said. The fire broke out just before 11:30 a.m. at Pinewood Studios, about 19 miles west of London, Buckinghamshire Fire Brigade said.Eight fire engines were called to the set, officials said. Television footage showed plumes of smoke rising from the building, with the roof of the "Casino Royale" set charred and caved in. "It is just a complete mess," said Fraser Pearson, spokesman for the Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. "I would say the whole building has been damaged by the fire. It is still smoking quite badly. There has definitely been a large blaze here." The vast stage had been transformed into a replica of Venice, Italy, where part of the film is set. "Casino Royale," due for release in October, will be the first film featuring actor Daniel Craig as agent 007.
