CRAIG HIGHEST-PAID BRITISH ACTOR
JAMES BOND star DANIEL CRAIG has become the U.K’s highest-paid actor - after signing a multi-million dollar deal with 007 bosses.
The actor has committed to appear in a further two movies in the super spy franchise, earning $10 million (£5 million) and £16 million (£8 million) for each one respectively - after his appearance in Casino Royale helped the movie become the biggest-grossing Bond outing ever, taking $600 million (£300 million) at the box office.
The $26 million (£13 million) sum is over twice the amount Craig originally negotiated with Bond production agency Eon, according to British newspaper the Sunday Express.
