The 49-year old actor told Stephen Colbert on Tuesday night’s \u201cLate Show\u201d that it will likely be his last time playing 007, and that he hopes to \u201cgo out on a high note.\u201d Craig has played Bond four times– \u201cCasino Royale,\u201d \u201cQuantum Of Solace,\u201d \u201cSkyfall\u201d and \u201cSpectre.\u201d<\/p>\n
