Former Bond star Pierce Brosnan is planning to watch his replacement Daniel Craig in new 007 movie 'Casino Royale'.
The 53-year-old actor played the suave spy in four movies, including 'Goldeneye' and 'Die Another Day', before being axed by bosses for allegedly demanding too much money to reprise the role for a fifth time.
Brosnan was initially fuming after being told he would not be donning the secret agent's famous tuxedo again, and let rip with a foul-mouthed tirade against the producers, branding them "f***ers".
However, it seems the handsome star has got over his disappointment and insists he will be going to the cinema to watch Craig in the new movie along with the millions of other Bond fans all over the world.
The 'Matador' star said: "I'm looking forward to it like we're all looking forward to it. Daniel Craig is going to do a fantastic job."
Since he was named as Brosnan's successor, Craig has come under fire from some Bond fans who claim he is unsuitable for the role.
However, the producers seem pleased with their choice and have already signed up the 38-year-old actor for a second movie, on which shooting is due to start next year.
