Daniel Craig will be donning the iconic James Bond suit for one last time in the upcoming movie “No Time To Die.” While sharing thoughts on his stint as the fictional character, Craig revealed that it has been an emotional ride for him and feels pretty excited to end it on such a high note.

According to a report, the 52-year-old actor, who was in New York to talk about his upcoming movie, admitted that playing Bond for 14 years has been “incredibly emotional” for him and did not hold back in saying that playing the iconic character has been massive for him.

Speaking in an interview at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, the esteemed actor explained that whatever he and the makers of those Bond films have done in the past has been really “massive.” The “Knives Out” star further stated that they always knew when they did a good movie.

“Looking back at what we have done, it has been incredibly emotional because it is massive. I knew we had a good movie when we were making it but I sort of squared away with myself; that if it was a swing and a miss, it was a swing and a miss,” Craig said.

The “Girl With The Dragon Tattoo” actor concluded by saying that he is “proud” of his final Bond film and fans would not see any loose ends. “It is now my last movie and we connected all the dots and we have answered all the questions,” Craig said.

But the movie is currently facing a lot of heat because of the coronavirus outbreak. The makers of the movie have decided to push back the release of the movie from April to November to prevent the spread of the deadly virus.

The decision came after the world’s most visited unofficial James Bond 007 website, MI6-HQ, wrote an open letter to the makers, the production company, and the distributors to move the release date of the much-awaited 25th film in the highly-successful movie series.

The cast of “No Time To Die” includes Craig, Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Lea Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, Jeffrey Wright, as well as franchise newcomers Rami Malek, Ana de Armas, Lashana Lynch, David Dencik, Billy Magnussen and Dali Benssalah.

The film will now hit theaters on Nov. 25, 2020.
