Daniel Craig Reportedly Reprising James Bond Role
Daniel Craig will reportedly return as 007 for James Bond 25.

Writing on Pottermore, JK Rowling said: "When I first planned the series, I expected Harry to visit all four house common rooms during his time at Hogwarts. There came a point when I realised that there was never going to be a valid reason to enter the Hufflepuff room.
"Nevertheless, it is quite as real to me as the other three, and I always knew exactly where those Hufflepuffs were going when they headed off towards the kitchens after lessons."
