James Bond's Daniel Craig earned 3.3 million pounds for just holding a mobile phone in the movie 'Skyfall.'

Leaked Sony Pictures emails showed that he got the fee from the firm's electronics division for using their Xperia mobile in the movie, the Mirror reported.

With the product placement a success, Sony wanted a similar deal for 'Spectre,' but emails showed rival Samsung offered tens of millions more to provide 007's phone.

But movie bosses negotiating a new deal for the next Bond film tried to cut the actor out to save cash, writing "NO Daniel this time".
