Daniel Craig Claims He Is A Better Guitarist Than Oasis' Noel Gallagher

London, England (BANG) - Daniel Craig claims he is a better guitarist than Noel Gallagher. The British actor would struggle to carry out the Oasis rocker's wishes and play him in a film because he would have to tone down his superior music skills.

Speaking at the European premiere of "Defiance" in London's Leicester Square Tuesday night, Daniel told BANG Showbiz: "Well, I can play the guitar better than he can so I don't know how that's really going to work. He hasn't spoken to me about that yet, but if he wants to make a deal."

Noel recently revealed the James Bond star - who is a huge Oasis fan - would be perfect to portray him in a movie about the band.

He said: "I wouldn't be averse to a film about Oasis. I would like Daniel to play me. I said to him, 'If you can swing it for me to get the James Bond theme tune, you can play me if they do an Oasis movie.'"

He then joked: "Who would play my brother Liam? I would have to say either Julian Clary or, in his first major role, Jeremy Kyle."

Daniel - who was joined on the red carpet by his co-stars Jamie Bell and Liev Schreiber - also said everyone involved in "Defiance" did it for the love of the project rather than an inflated fee.

He added: "All the stories we took were based on fact. It was a really good bunch of people. No one did this film for the money."

"We had a laugh, we had to. It was cold so we drank a lot too."

The premiere was also attended by "Pirates of the Caribbean" star Jonathan Pryce and U.K. TV presenter Vanessa Feltz.
