Daniel Craig has lavished praise on new co-star Nicole Kidman - insisting the Australian actress “turns me on.” Craig and Kidman co-star in two films being released this year, The Invasion and The Dark Prophecies, and Craig never tires of sharing the screen with beauty.
Craig gushes, “Nicole turns me on. Not in a sordid, horrible way…well, come to think of it…”
However, Kidman plays it cool, praising Craig for being “an actor’s actor.”

From the interview:
Daniel Craig can’t stand listening to Nicole Kidman. In fact, it’s so painful that he has stuck his fingers in his ears and is humming loudly to drown her out. Meanwhile, Kidman is happily responding to a question about whether the 38-year-old actor changed after landing his role as James Bond last year.
“Oh, completely,” deadpans Kidman, 39, who was with him, shooting one of their upcoming films, The Invasion, when he got the call. “In 24 hours he became a diva,” she adds, with a nod toward Craig, who continues to hum his tune as the pair sit in the cozy bar of a London photography studio, where they’re sharing a bottle of sparkling water. But then Kidman breaks down and tells the truth: “Oh, he didn’t change at all,” she says in her haute-Aussie twang. “The thing about Daniel, and the reason I like working with him, is that he’s an actor’s actor.”
Of course, Craig has heard the whole thing, and he seems far more alarmed by the compliment than by the faux insult. “How dare you!” he shouts, and they both giggle.
It is a chilly, slate gray autumn Saturday, and Kidman, who’s barefoot and still wearing a caffe latte–colored Dior gown from the fashion shoot, and Craig, in a navy blue cardigan more suited to Mister Rogers than Mr. Bond, are punchy after a long day posing under hot lights. On Monday they’ll return to the London set of The Golden Compass, a fantasy-adventure film based on the first book in Philip Pullman’s trilogy His Dark Materials. The movie, to be released later this year, is their second collaboration, the first being The Invasion, which is loosely based on Invasion of the Body Snatchers and is also due out in 2007.

Casino Royale has become the highest-grossing James Bond film ever, according to film monitors ScreenDaily.
The Daniel Craig flick has impressed both audiences and critics despite initial concern over the choice of lead character.
And it now appears that the film-makers got it spot on, as the film has now taken $454 million across cinemas worldwide.
According to ScreenDaily, the film is now being shown on 6,330 screens in 64 countries and has added $19.4 million during the four days over Christmas.
It means that the previous top Bond film, Die Another Day, has dropped to second place in the franchise’s all-time list after taking $431 million worldwide.
