London,
(ANI):
Actress
Rachel
Weisz
is
reportedly
in
negotiations
with
director
Sam
Mendes
to
star
in
the
new
James
Bond
movie,
opposite
her
alleged
lover
Daniel
Craig.
According
to
Grazia
magazine,
filming
on
the
23rd
007
film
is
set
to
commence
later
this
year
and
hit
cinemas
on
9
November,
2012.
"Rachel
has
been
speaking
with
Sam
for
some
time
now
about
appearing
in
the
new
Bond
film,
long
before
she
and
Daniel
hit
it
off," the
Daily
Express
quoted
a
source
as
telling
the
publication.
The
publication
also
reports
The
Mummy
star
is
planning
to
leave
her
home
in
New
York
and
move
back
to
her
native
U.K.
with
her
son,
Henry,
by
former
partner
Darren
Aronofsky.
The
Hollywood
couple
ended
its
eight-year
relationship
in
2010,
announcing
news
of
the
split
in
November
last
year
after
several
months
of
separation.
And
rumours
of
her
romance
with
Craig
surfaced
later
after
they
were
spotted
strolling
hand-in-hand
over
Christmas.
"Whatever
happens,
she
intends
to
move
back
to
London
this
year.
She
loves
her
life
in
New
York
but
she
desperately
misses
England,
and
is
keen
to
reconnect
with
her
roots
there.
But
most
importantly
she
wants
to
be
there
to
support
Daniel,"
the
source
said.
"Rachel
and
Daniel
have
become
very
close
and
are
serious
about
one
another.
It
seems
that
being
photographed
holding
hands
was
their
way
of
showing
the
world
that,"
the
source
added.
