James Bond star Daniel Craig has signed up to play a fading Hollywood star in Baillie Walsh's 'Flashbacks of a Fool'.

Craig, who won rave reviews for his turn as Bond in 'Casino Royale', will join a cast which also features fellow British stars Helen McCrory, Olivia Williams and Emilia Fox.

Craig, who is 39, will play a star in his 40s whose allure is starting to fade and whose Hollywood career takes a nosedive.

This will be the writing and directing debut for Baillie Walsh, whose work includes music videos for INXS and Massive Attack.
