Daniel Craig is planning to return to his theatrical roots with a stint on the stage, as soon as he can take a break from playing James Bond.

The British star made his stage debut with a production of Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida at the age of 16, before studying alongside fellow leading men Ewan McGregor and Joseph Fiennes at London's Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

But, after years of struggling with an acting troupe, Craig moved on to film with his big-screen debut in 1992's The Power of One before becoming the latest 007.

Now the 40-year-old is considering returning to tread the boards on London's West End - but only if he can find the right material.

Craig tells Aol movies, "My ideal would be to choose some new writing. I have nothing against the classics, but new writing to me seems like it gives you a chance to try new stuff out, stuff no one's ever seen before. I think that makes for a much more exciting theatre experience."
