The 37-year-old hunk also claims he and Kidman, 38, had a bubbling chemistry
when they worked together on the screen adaptation of Philip Pullman's
best-selling book 'The Dark Prophecy'.
It seems the admiration isn't one-sided.
Kidman - who has two adopted children, Conor and Isabella, with ex husband
Tom Cruise - asked Craig for his autograph shortly after she first met him
and he was confirmed as the new Bond.
A source told Britain's Daily Express newspaper: "At first it seemed like
she was just teasing him. Then she explained she really did want it because
her son Conor is a massive Bond fan. I think it was probably the first
autograph he ever signed as 007."
Since working alongside Craig, Kidman has praised him, describing the
British star as "an actor's actor".
