"I've been trying to get out of this from the very moment I got into it," he is quoted as telling Rolling Stone.
"But they won't let me go, and I've agreed to do a couple more, but let's see how this one does, because business is business and if the s**t goes down, I've got a contract that somebody will happily wipe their ass with."
Craig will star in at least two more James Bond films, which he recently denied would be a two-parter.
Skyfall has smashed UK box office records, securing the biggest seven-day gross of all time, and becoming the 13th highest-ever grossing film.
The film will be released in the US on November 9.
