Former Bond girl Caterina Murino says the reason Daniel Craig turned down a $146 million offer to play Bond, was because it was too much pressure. Murino worked with Craig on his first Bond film, Casino Royale. " It's not easy to go back time and time again. It can be tiring to keep trying to find new things in the same role ... It's a very tiring movie. And Daniel is not just an actor, he's a human being too," she aaid adding that Craig was "not completely relaxed" on set, and struggled with media criticism. "People were expecting him to fail and you could feel the tension. It wasn't just a challenge for Daniel, but for everyone making Casino Royale," Murino said. "He also knew the role would change his life and he would go down in history."
