Bodyguards for James Bond actor Daniel Craig struggled to prevent the media from filming the star in between takes, resulting in tension and a minor confrontation on set.

A minor confrontation erupted between reporters and the bodyguards after they attempted to physically interfere and obstruct reporters from capturing shots of the actor. Craig’s team later resorted to using a smoke machine to repel the reporters swarming the set.

Bystanders were affected by the heavy smoke, daily Hürriyet reported.

Daniel Craig is a trouble maker everywhere he goes to film. He is such a primadonna. If he doesn't want to be photographed then get in some other business. He creates drama everywhere. Hire someone who likes what they do for a living.

Yanks are allowed to do anything for the money that they pay into AKP coffers of Istanbul. Let a Türk do the same and he'll rot in jail!

Leave Daniel Craig alone so he can enjoy Turkish culture.
