Sir Roger Moore says he could play James Bond once again


Sir Roger Moore is now 89-years old and he has said that he could appear in another James Bond movie. Right now he is the longest serving actor to play the MI6 agent and he made the comments while interacting with an audience at the Southbank Centre in London.
He has denied receiving any offers but has not ruled out the possibility of appearing in a future Bond film in a cameo role - it would give him the opportunity to "expand the family coffers".
This has been reported in news.sky.com dated 28 November 2016.
On the occasion he paid rich tribute to Daniel Craig and Sean Connery - he described them as the best actors to have filled the tuxedo of the world's most celebrated spy. In his opinion, Sean was obviously the great Bond. In his words - 'he was obviously the right person, he brought the right personality to the performance, otherwise Bond would not have gone on past the first six that he did. He was a tremendous Bond.'
As to Daniel Craig - he is quite extraordinary. Sean looked like a killer - but Daniel Craig would finish it off. He went on to add that while seeing Casino Royale, he thought that Daniel Craig did more action in the first seven minutes than he had done in seven movies.
Sir Roger Moore lamented that though he had played one of the most coveted roles in the film industry, there was one character he wished he could have played and that was of Lawrence of Arabia.
