Bi-Bond

Thursday 30 November 2006

Daniel Craig requests gay scenes in next film.

Now that’s progress. We never thought we’d have David Beckham to thank for anything but he’s done sterling work in this area. According to ContactMusic:

Daniel Craig has urged movie bosses to modernize the upcoming Bond series by including gay scenes involving the superspy.

The blond Bond has reportedly made it clear to studio chiefs he has no inhibition doing film a full frontal nude scene to please both his male and female admirers in the follow-up to Casino Royale.

“Why not? I think in this day and age, fans would have accepted it,” Contactmusic quoted him as saying.

“I mean, look at (British TV series) Doctor Who — that has had gay scenes in it and no one blinks an eye,” he added.”
