Wilson’s claims of bagging Craig for another movie, come just days after the cast of “Spectre” appeared in NY to promote the movie.

Here’s what Mendes had to say on the matter…
Finally, while Waltz is an excellent choice for a Bond villain, he at times seems to recycle his modern-classic Hans Landa character from Inglourious Basterds here. The job that you have is to cut out the white noise and make the movie you want to see and you must not compromise that.
“Spectre” earned $70.4 million in its debut weekend, easily besting the opening of “The Peanuts Movie”, which earned $44.2 million, according to final figures released Monday.
As I said above, the problems with Bond’s character is not Craig’s fault. This performance, paired with his outstanding portrayal of Bond in the 2012 installment,”Skyfall”, is shaping Craig up to be one of the best actors ever casted as Bond. Another popular move is to do a dark take on the story – again, see the “Batman” movies – but these movies are already more serious than their predecessors. “I feel very honoured to be part of this film and I’m so happy to be part of it”, the 30-year-old actress said.
This isn’t bad at all, although it throws under most predictions (BOP was, I think, the closest at $74 million). Dave Bautista is, however, underused as SPECTRE’s main henchman Mr. Hinx.
“I grew up with Daniel”.
Spectre stars Daniel Craig and Lea Seydoux joined producer Barbara Broccoli in Beijing, China to accept a certificate from Guinness World Records.
Bond’s searching eventually leads back to the mysterious man, known as Blofeld, who reveals a startling reason why he is so familiar with 007 and his past.
“They (cutters) were absolutely brilliant. Lee Smith is one of the greatest Australian exports he is a fantastic cutter, incredible”, adding he was although bitterly disappointed they knew nothing of cricket and wouldn’t be baited into an argument over the Ashes.
Risk does not always equal return in the Bond market. So my Bond is, of course, Daniel…
So a third instalment for Mendes then?

Spectre, which has taken box offices worldwide by storm, opened at the number one spot in all 71 territories, with the United Kingdom responsible for a third of all worldwide ticket sales so far. We think the music is awesome.
