James Bond (2005–present)

In February 2005, Craig had been named in the media as a possible candidate to portray James Bond. On April 6, 2005, Craig was reported to have signed with EON Productions as part of a three-film contract worth £15 million (US$29,696,972).^[4] However, the news was later debunked by the BBC who contacted EON for an official report.^[5] Image File history File links Download high-resolution version (508x755, 63 KB) This image is of a movie poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the movie or the studio which produced the movie in question. ...

On 23 October 2005, Craig signed a three-film contract. He stated that he "was aware of the challenges" of the James Bond franchise which he considers "a big machine" that "makes a lot of money".

Some controversy followed with a small but vocal group of fans threatening a boycott of the film,^[7] and a website was created for the protest, which ultimately failed. He reached high attention when screen shots of him were released in a tight swim suit and bulging chest which made him on People Hottest Men's list.^[8]^[9] The reason was Craig being blond unlike all preceding James Bond actors. Media coverage of the controversy resulted in numerous actors publicly voicing their support of Craig. Most notably, four of the five previous actors who portrayed Bond – Pierce Brosnan^[10] Timothy Dalton, Sean Connery, Roger Moore – called his casting a good decision. Clive Owen, who had been linked to the role, also spoke in defence of Craig.^[11] In an interview with The Globe and Mail, Pierce Brosnan was asked, "What do you think of the new James Bond, Daniel Craig, and will you be watching Casino Royale?" He contradicted his earlier criticisms and replied, "I'm looking forward to it like we're all looking forward to it. Daniel Craig is a great actor, and he's going to do a fantastic job".^[12] Pierce Brendan Brosnan,The most gorgeous man on the planet OBE[1] (born May 16, 1953) is an Irish actor and producer best known for portraying James Bond in four films from 1995 to 2002: GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, The World Is Not Enough and Die Another Day. ...

In 2006, Casino Royale became #5 best-selling Bond film of all time; however, with recent DVD and box office sales, it rose to the #2 best-selling Bond film of all time as of 2007. The same year, Craig was invited to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.^[22] Fairbanks Center for Motion Picture Study building on La Cienega Boulevard in Beverly Hills, California Pickford Center for Motion Picture Study in the Hollywood, district. ...

On June 12th 2008 Craig sliced the top of his finger off while filming the latest James bond film, "'Quantum of Solace". The accident was the latest in a string of incidents surrounding the shoot, including a fire at one of the sets in Pinewood Studios, England, a car crash which left the stunt driver in a serious condition and an Aston Martin skidding off the road while filming in heavy rains in the north of Italy and plunging into Lake Garda. This lead to a superstition amongst the crew that the filming of the sequel to his premiere as the secret agent is jinxed.
