片方出1.5億美金請克雷格回歸007

Many men – and women too, for that matter – would love to play James Bond. Most of us would also love $150 million.
飾演詹姆斯?邦德是大多數(shù)男人甚至是女人都夢寐以求的。我們大多數(shù)人也會想要1.5億美元。

But Hollywood superstar Daniel Craig is not most people.
但是好萊塢巨星丹尼爾?克雷格可不是大多數(shù)人。

The 007 actor, who has played the spy since 2005, has reportedly been offered the hefty sum listed above to return to the franchise for two more films. But Craig has made no secret of his reluctance to step back into the famous tuxedo.
據(jù)報道，這位自2005年起就扮演特工007的演員受邀繼續(xù)出演007系列的后兩部電影，片酬高達1.5億。但是克雷格明確表示了他不想再出演邦德。

“The studio is desperate to secure the actor’s services while they phase in a younger long-term successor,” a source told the celebrity news website Radar.
明星新聞網(wǎng)站Radar得到的消息稱：“電影公司很想讓克雷格繼續(xù)演下去，同時他們也在尋找未來可以長期出演該角色的年輕演員。”

The source also suggested that by playing coy – remember when he told an interviewer he’d rather “slash his wrists” than immediately return to Bond? – Craig has only upped his perceived value.
消息也指出，克雷格出演這個角色，也只是提高了他的知名度。他曾告訴采訪記者，他情愿“砍傷手腕”也不要馬上回去演邦德。

He’s essentially made himself into the man too cool to play Bond.
他已經(jīng)把自己打造成了一個超級酷男，不適合演邦德了。

“Everyone knows how much executives adore him, and the idea of losing him at such a crucial time in the franchise isn’t an option as far as all the studio honchos are concerned,” said the source, who added that Craig “has played a genius hand.”
消息稱：“眾人皆知他很受高管們的青睞。對于所有電影公司的老板來說，在如此重要的時刻失去他可不是個好事。”消息里還補充道，克雷格“這一步走得很高明。”

“Daniel’s the key for a seamless, safe transition as far as Sony and Bond bosses are concerned, and they’re prepared to pay a king’s ransom to make it happen.”
“對于索尼和邦德系列電影的老板們來說，丹尼爾是該系列影片進行安全無縫交接的關(guān)鍵。他們準備付給他超高片酬，讓他繼續(xù)演邦德。”

The story above, which has not been confirmed by Sony or by representatives for Craig, comes in the wake of a May 2016 claim that Craig had turned down a ￡68 million offer to return for two more films. If true, it could suggest that studio is trying to tempt Craig back with increasingly larger sums.
但是以上消息都未被索尼或克雷格經(jīng)紀人證實。2016年5月也有消息稱制片方開出6800萬英鎊的片酬邀克雷格再演兩部。如果此次消息可靠，這就意味著電影公司將嘗試用更高的價格來吸引克雷格重返007。

In the meantime, there’s been a steady string of rumours about who could replace Craig as Bond, with a new hopeful claimed as the frontrunner almost every other week (we’re getting pretty fed up of writing the weekly news articles, truth to be told).
同時，還有一系列關(guān)于誰將接替克雷格成為新一代邦德的謠言。每隔一周都會有新邦德人選的傳言出現(xiàn)。（說實話，我們對每周寫關(guān)于新人選的文章已經(jīng)煩透了。）

Some of the latest contenders named include Victoria actor Tom Hughes, who has allegedly impressed Bond producer Barbara Broccoli, and Marvel stars Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston.
最新的接替人選有英劇《維多利亞》中的男主演湯姆?休斯、漫威演員克里斯?哈姆斯沃斯和湯姆?希德勒斯頓。據(jù)說邦德制片人芭芭拉?布羅科利對湯姆?休斯的印象十分深刻。

Despite claiming he’s too old for the role, Idris Elba remains a popular choice with Bond fans, as does Billy Elliot star Jamie Bell.
伊德瑞斯?艾爾巴也是007粉絲眼中的熱門人選，雖然他年紀太大不適合演邦德。《舞動人生》中的杰米?貝爾也是熱門人選之一。
