Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem, Naomie Harris, and Sam Mendes cover the latest issue of The Hollywood Reporter.

“Obviously, financially I am pretty sound, and that is a wonderful thing; my family is secure. It is very strange – you’ve got no point of reference for something like this. I’ve spoken to Pierce Brosnan, but nobody can warn you. I love the collaborative process of moviemaking. But going out for a cup of coffee? That’s the price you pay,” Daniel said of how the film franchise has changed his life.
