Sir Roger Moore says Daniel Craig earned every penny for CR

[stockslivevan]

Actor Sir Roger Moore jokingly envies his James Bond successors Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig - because they have made more money from the superspy role than he did, reports Contact Music.

Moore, 79, played the action star in seven movies in the Bond franchise during the 1970s and 1980s and would love to have enjoyed the financial benefits of modern-day actors - who typically command six-figure salaries per film.

He says, "I made seven Bond films and they were all successful. Maybe I could have done one of Pierce Brosnan's - or rather I could have done with one of Pierce's pay cheques!"

But Moore believes Craig - the latest Bond star - is worth every bit of his movie fee, because he wouldn't have been able to pull off the kind of stunts shown in 2006's Casino Royale. He adds, "Jumping across cranes and the building site - I don't have that sort of energy. Daniel Craig deserves every penny of his salary for that alone."

It's interesting to hear that Sir Rog didn't say he deserved his fee based on his accurate portrayal of Bond or how close he was to Fleming's vision of Bond. No, he states Craig deserved his fee for his most un-Bond like moments, Crane jumping and smashing through walls.
