Back in May, Craig reportedly turned down nearly $100 million to play Bond twice more. Now, according to Radar , Sony has upped that value to $150 million.A source told Radar "the studio is desperate to secure the actor’s services while they phase in a younger long-term successor."Daniel Craig said last year he'd "rather slash my wrists" than play Bond again , but Radar's source says Craig has "played a genius hand.""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.The next two films will reportedly be shot "virtually back to back," and a third movie would "mark the start of a new era."Multiple actors are rumored to eventually be replacing Craig as Bond, including Tom Hiddleston, who was reportedly in talks with the studio back in May
