Daniel Craig is ducking a question about James Bond’s private life … subtly laughing off a query over whether the superspy might be gay.
The actor attended the Venice International Film Festival Tuesday to promote his new film, “Queer,” alongside director Luca Guadagnino … in which Craig has several notable same-sex sex scenes with costar Omar Apollo.

While speaking with press at the festival, Daniel and Luca were immediately grilled about the James Bond actor’s casting in the LGBTQ+ drama — given that Craig is best known for playing one of the most heteronormative male icons in film history.
Daniel himself was asked if his participation in “Queer” meant there was a chance James Bond one day could identify as LGBTQ+.
Watch the video … Daniel gives a subtle chuckle and drinks from his water, not engaging. Luca shuts down the question … and chastises the room full of journalists — “Let’s be adults in the room for a second.”

Since DC left the Bond role following his performance in 2021’s “No Time to Die,” it was certainly a stretch to ask him to weigh in on the character’s future … which is probably why he laughed off the query.
Though there’s no word on who will next drink their martinis shaken, not stirred, in the forthcoming Bond flicks … Aaron Taylor-Johnson is the rumored frontrunner.
As for Daniel, it’s said his work in “Queer” is his most daring yet … do we smell an Oscar in his future???
