Social Media Slams Daniel Craig's Comments

"Breaking News: Millionaire complains about being a millionaire," commented another X user on the same post. "Let's see him give the money back then," wrote another. "After he did how many James Bond movies? Will he give money the back?" asked another, as someone else harshly said it was "hard to feel sorry for him when he made millions off it."
