Craig says Bond pressure is now on

007 star Daniel Craig has said that the "pressure is now on" to make the next Bond movie better than his debut in 'Casino Royale'.
Speaking to MTV News about the 22nd Bond film, Craig said it would "actually follow on quite closely after the last story".
He continued: "Paul Haggis [writer] is someone who can actually take on the story and the character and take it to a different place. The same rules apply, but the pressure is now on, in a weird way."
Asked about the criticism which followed his casting as Bond, Craig said: "[W]e knew we had something good to do. The thing is, now we have to turn up with the goods. If we don't, then they were right, and that can't happen."
