Daniel Craig has admitted he is struggling to overcome his biggest fear to play James Bond - he's terrified of guns.
The hunky actor will have to handle weapons to play the dashing spy in the next Bond movie, but says he was left petrified after seeing a real life bullet wound.
The star told Britain's OK! magazine: 'I hate handguns. They are used to shooting people and as long as they are around, people will shoot each other. 'I've seen a bullet wound and it was a mess.' The 'Layer Cake' actor also confessed he doesn't even like 007's top tipple - Martini shaken, not stirred. He revealed: 'I don't think anybody makes a Martini stirred any more.' Earlier this month it was revealed the 37-year-old is set to have his manhood whacked with a carpet-beater in the new film. The nasty torture scene sees 007's enemy, Le Chiffre, 'tenderise' the dashing spy's private parts with a cane carpet-beater. The episode is one of the most well-known moments in Ian Fleming's spy thriller 'Casino Royale' - and film bosses are determined to stick to the book.Copyright 2005 BANG Media International
