Background
On December 13, 2007, it was reported on the Ain't It Cool News website that actor Daniel Craig supposedly leaked the title of the 22nd Bond film.
In an interview with ITV television program This Morning, Craig said the title was "more of a number," citing that in the previous film, Bond earned his "00 status," so the character would be 007 in the next.1
His comments fueled speculation regarding the film's real title, with some skeptics disagreeing with Craig's claim. In January 2008, the film was officially announced as Quantum of Solace.2
