It's James Blond
By Nicole Lampert, Daily Mail, Showbusiness Editor
11 October 2005

He has just proved his ladykilling credentials by seducing Sienna Miller from under the nose of his friend, Jude Law.

Now Daniel Craig is about to become the biggest seducer of all - Ian Fleming's James Bond.

The actor, who found fame as Geordie in the BBC series Our Friends in the North in 1996, got the job after an 18-month mission to replace Pierce Brosnan.

Scores of others, including Law himself, Ewan McGregor, Colin Farrell and Orlando Bloom, were considered but rejected.

In the end a shortlist of two emerged - Craig and newcomer Henry Cavill. The pair were auditioned again and tried on tuxedos to see how they would look in the quintessential Bond clothing.

Craig, 37, whose choice will be confirmed by producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson later this week, will be the sixth Bond, but the first blond.

He will star in the 21st Bond film, based on Ian Fleming's first book Casino Royale.

Craig has said he does not like the fact that the films are more about gadgets than feelings.

He added: 'It's a big machine and it makes a lot of money - so why would you change something that makes a lot of money?'

I dunno who this guy is, but Pierce's shoes will be hard to fill - sure noone was as good as Connery but a blond Bond? Seems gimmicky to me.

at a glance, yeah it looks like that Basil dude (I'm too lazy to look up his real name).

there were rumors that Cleese wasn't going to reprise the Q role either.

the first 2 with Pierce are great IMO, the roger moore stuff was all campy, but fitting for the time.

The last two, especially this last one with halle berry, were crap.

The whole series is tired and needs more then a new Bond. They could use some new material instead of rehashing and destroying the originals.

roger moore sucked. he made it too jokey. the new bond should have been clive owen.

michael york was basil.
I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.

That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.

it wasnt moore that made it campy, it was the writing.

yeah, he wasnt up to connery. but the man with the golden gun and live and let die wasnt awful.

Will the Casino Royale remake ever happen?
