Olivia Wilde has admitted that she developed a crush on English actor Daniel Craig while filming her latest movie.

The Tron Legacy actress stars opposite Craig in Jon Favreau's upcoming comic book adaptation Cowboys & Aliens, and has claimed that female fans will definitely enjoy the film.

"He is the most beautiful man on earth," Wilde admitted to E! Online. "He really is."

Wilde joked that as production on the film went on, the producers seemed to find more and more ways to exploit Craig's sex appeal.

"They kept making [his chaps] tighter," she revealed. "You could tell we had female executives because he kept getting tighter pants and he would have random shirtless scenes.

"We were like, 'Yes, finally the ladies are in charge!'".

Wilde recently announced that she is single, despite widespread reports linking her to the likes of Justin Timberlake and Bradley Cooper.

Cowboys & Aliens is due out in US cinemas on July 29, and in the UK on 19 August.
