Daniel Craig will have a male love interest in the next Bond movie. The British actor has attracted a large gay following after sharing an onscreen kiss with another man in his latest movie 'Infamous', and film bosses are keen to capitalise on this new status. 'Infamous' documents the life of author Truman Capote. In the movie, Craig plays convicted killer Perry Smith who has a relationship with Capote, played by British actor Toby Jones. 'Bond 22' - the follow-up to Craig's debut 007 movie 'Casino Royale', which is due to be released in November - will now see a homoerotic relationship develop between the suave spy and secret agent Felix Leiter, played by Jeffrey Wright. A film insider said: "Bond will always be a hit with the ladies. But Daniel has a massive gay fan base and that can't be ignored. "There will still be sexy Bond Girls. But the modern Bond will be more sensitive."Craig has already been heavily criticised by some Bond fans unhappy at his casting in the role and this latest news seems certain to cause more furor
