James Bond may be indestructible, but the actors who play 007 are not.

Daniel Craig has had arthroscopic knee surgery in between filming the latest Bond flick Spectre.

Producers say he underwent a "minor procedure" during the Easter production break.

He is believed to have suffered the injury while filming action scenes for Spectre in Mexico.

Eon Productions said Monday that Craig will rejoin the production when it resumes filming at the famed Pinewood Studios in England on April 22.

Craig is making his fourth appearance as the suave secret agent. He follows Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan and others in the role.
