Lea Seydoux thought Spectre was going to be Daniel Craig's last James Bond movie

James Bond after 15 years in the role. But now his predecessor Pierce Brosnan has given his fellow 007 a challenge.

James Bond in No Time To Die, spoke about his preference on the podcast Lunch with Bruce, where he explained that he started going to gay bars when he was younger to avoid getting “in a punch-up” on a night out.“I’ve been going to gay bars for as long as I can remember,” Craig said. “One of the reasons: because I don’t get into fights in gay bars that often.”He added: “As a kid, because it was like… ‘I don’t want to end up [being] in a punch-up.’ And I did.
