Just earlier in the day he had been extremely coy about reprising the role while he was on US radio show Morning Magic 106.7, saying he would “love to do it” but it was all down to “personal decisions”.

While chatting with Stephen Colbert, the actor finally ended the will he/won’t he rumours if he would be coming back as Mr Bond.

“I have been quite cagey about it. I have been doing interviews all day and people have been asking me and I think I have been rather coy. But kind of felt like if I was going to speak the truth I should speak the truth to you,” Daniel said.

The TV host then asked: “We could used some good news here. Daniel Craig, will you return as James Bond?”
