Updates have been sparse on the 25th "James Bond" movie, and there's still no confirmation as to whether Daniel Craig will be returning as 007 or not. There's currently a "will he or won't he" buzz surrounding the franchise, especially since Craig himself has been very vague about his responses regarding the film.

Craig previously said he's "done" and that all he wanted to do was "move on" with "James Bond." A couple of months later Craig impliedly retracted his statement. According to The Independent, Craig spoke at the New York Festival's Beyond Bond panel, where he said "If I were to stop doing it, I would miss it terribly. I love this job. I get a massive kick out of it and if I can keep getting a kick out of it, I will."

Moreover, Craig's "Spectre" co-star Naomi Harris also hinted that he may reprise his role as the super suave spy. Harris, who played Eve Moneypenny in the last two "James Bond" movies, said that Craig is still somewhat attached to the franchise.

"I really don't think that they've moved on from Daniel," said Harris. "I think there's a very good chance that Daniel will come back."

Despite these statements, there's still no certainty about Craig's highly awaited comeback as James Bond so much so that there are still rumors of the role being re-casted. Tom Hardy and Michael Fassbender have been among the frontrunners so far. Jack Huston is also being mentioned as favorite by "James Bond" producer Barbara Broccoli.

However, Craig's latest event appearance perhaps reinforces the fact he's still James Bond. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Craig attended the Omega dinner at The Beekman Hotel. The private gathering was attended by 35 guests, comprised of journalists, Omega execs and VIP clients.

What makes Craig's attendance particularly interesting is the fact that Omega has been a long-time partner of the "James Bond" franchise. They've been providing the films with timepieces ever since 1995's "Golden Eye."

As a matter of fact, Craig said his Omega Seamaster watch holds a very special place in his heart since it was the first timepiece he wore as Bond in "Casino Royale." The piece was ultimately given to him by Broccoli after the film was completed.
