Daniel Craig has surgery on shoulder

007's latest gadget is far from glamorous. Bond hunk Daniel Craig has been spotted wearing a shoulder sling as he promotes Quantum of Solace. What's ailing him?

The actor reveals that he's undergone surgery to correct a labral tear, or what he calls a "kind of separation of the shoulder."

It's an old injury, the 40-year-old tells the Daily Telegraph magazine, adding, "I've probably aggravated it by jumping around on Bond movies."

"It wasn't an essential operation but if I don't do it now, I could do something on the next movie and rip it out of its socket," he continues. "It's just a pain in the a---, really, and it'll be a long wait before it heals properly."

Solace, Craig's second outing as James Bond, will have its world premiere in London later this month – with Prince William and Harry in attendance.
