I have no idea what Gerard Butler is basing the comments he made talking to a British magazine but nevertheless here they are,
“I enjoy doing an array of films. If I was to play Bond, that would quickly stop. How likely would I be accepted doing those roles after having played Bond? People outside of movies think it would be amazing to play 007, but as an actor you think, ‘Well I don’t know because from then on…?”
I can think of most all the actors who played Bond going on to have great acting careers so what is Butler on about? If he wants to have a truly lasting career he’ll quiting jobs before he even gets them.

Hugh Jackman will team up with Daniel Craig on Broadway this fall.
To debut this fall on New York’s most theatrical street, A Steady Rain will star Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig as cop buddies whose friendship is tested by a particularly brutal case on the mean streets of Chicago.
While this is Craig’s first time on Broadway, Jackman is no stranger to the stage, winning a Tony in 2004 for his performance in The Boy from Oz. Let’s hope these boys are just as sexy copping that famous midwestern accent.

On Her Majesty’s Service has been the raison d’être of secret agent James Bond for more than half a century.
But never has it been more vividly brought to life than when serving soldiers, Princes William and Harry, used the royal world premiere of the new 007 film to throw the spotlight onto Britain’s real action heroes.
The young royals were cheered loudly as they arrived for last night’s launch of Quantum of Solace.
It was their first movie premiere in their own right. (They attended Spiceworld: The Movie in 1997 with their father Prince Charles.)

You could call it a genuine excursion by the brothers In Her Majesty’s Service. And it had a serious motive.
The aim was to raise more than £500,000 from the evening for two military charities, The Royal British Legion and Help for Heroes.

A Clarence House spokesman said: ‘The princes chose these two great causes because they are linked to Remembrance Day, but most importantly because they want to make the point that this is a film about a British action hero, but the money is going to our country’s real heroes who put their lives in the line of fire day in, day out, in Iraq and Afghanistan.

LONDON (Reuters) – At times fictional superspy 007 seems to be bullet-proof.
The new James Bond film “Quantum of Solace” may prove critic-and recession-proof too when it hits British cinemas this week and U.S. theatres on November 14, box office trackers predict. The second Bond movie with Daniel Craig as the suave secret agent is expected to build on the success of 2006′s “Casino Royale,” despite economic pressures on movie-goers and agreement among critics that the earlier film was comfortably the better.
“Quantum of Solace is one of the few event pictures left in the year,” said Brandon Gray, president of Box Office Mojo.
“People responded very well to Casino Royale, and I think people’s affinity for Casino Royale will drive Quantum of Solace to a terrific opening,” he told Reuters.
Jack Warner, who covers the box office for Screen International, agreed.
“Bond is a very strong brand to build on,” he said. “No one expects a sequel to do less well than the one before it. Casino Royale went down well critically and with audiences, and they will be looking to break that figure.”
