Daniel Craig admits being `nasty` to Kristen Stewart

London: `Skyfall` star Daniel Craig has admitted he was being `nasty` to Kristen Stewart after saying she wouldn`t make a good Bond girl, claiming he made the comment only because their new films are in competition at the box office.

The 44-year-old actor, who has thrice played the role of James Bond since 2006, dismissed Stewart`s ambitions to star in the franchise but admitted he was only being `nasty` because their new films `Skyfall` and `Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2` are in the box office race, reported a website. Asked whether the `Twilight` star would be the right fit for a Bond movie, Craig said, "Would she make a good `Bond` girl? No, she`s in `Twilight`". But he soon added, "No, I`m being nasty. It`s only because the film (`Skyfall`) is coming out at the same time (as `Breaking Dawn - Part 2`), we`re in direct competition. I`m sure she`d make a great Bond girl." The final instalment of the vampire franchise has already swept the box office, pushing ‘Skyfall’ to No. 2 position in the overseas market. Stewart previously admitted she is interested in reading a Bond script. "I would love to read a few graphs of the script. I choose my roles really instinctually. I would really have to connect with the material," the actress said. "As long as I get to have a gun. Yes, hell yeah!" she added. PTI
