Daniel Craig will not star in 'Thor'

The 'Quantum of Solace' actor has been linked to the role of the Norse god in a movie adaptation of the comic book character, but says he has no intention of taking on the role.

When asked if speculation were true, Daniel replied: "No. It doesn't interest me at all."

Kennath Branagh is said to be directing the film, while other names in the frame to play the title character include Kevin McKidd and WWE wrestler Triple H.

Meanwhile, Daniel has insisted he is happy with the basic conditions on the set of his new movie 'Defiance'.

Trailers for the cast to relax in between scenes have been moved away from the area where they are filming but the actor insists he is happy with the limited facilities as it keeps him focussed on work.

He explained: "We didn't have a trailer. We had a bucket and a tarpaulin and I was happy with it. It has a huge influence on what you're doing and it did have an influence on us, the fact that we all decided that we'd rather not spend time in our trailers, that we'd rather spend the time on set.

"I think that's key to a lot of what went on there on the set. It was cold. It was miserable. It was wet. It was uncomfortable, but you always have in the back of your mind the idea that you have a bed to go back home to that night and that there is some hot food somewhere within the forest.

"I don't spend much time in my trailer anyway even if it's huge and it never is. The last place that I want to be is in a smelly caravan. I mean, I'd rather be on set trying to get some work done."
