Daniel Craig as James Bond
Daniel Craig is believed to have signed at least two more films to play as James Bond. "Skyfall" is the third film in which Craig played the character of James Bond. Craig has also done well in other films such as "Casino Royale" in 2006 and "The Quantion of Solace" in 2008. According to a 007 fan website, M16-HQ, Sony has decided to co-finance the film with MGM with a new deal. However, Sony had no comment about the rumor. "Skyfall" is going to hit the theaters on November 9th.
When choosing this article, what really caught my eye was Daniel Craig's name. I am a huge fan of Craig. I thought that he was absolutely amazing in "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo." He was not exactly what I thought of when reading the book, but he played the character very well. I personally have not watched any James Bond movies. However, I do intend on watching "Skyfall." Hopefully, it lives up to my expectations.
As a student, this article tells me that it is not impossible to be successful. Despite his growing age, Daniel Craig is rising the charts as one of the best actors in the industry. I do remember flirting with the idea of being an actress before. If that were still the case, Craig would have provided me with a great role model. As a filmmaker, I could use the article's information as a guide for me in the future. I know that if I really like an actor or actress, I would most definitely sign them for another film contract, only if the film is to become a series. Personally, I like Daniel Craig. If I were a filmmaker right now, I would also sign him into more films. As a consumer, there are high expectations for an actor playing James Bond. I have high expectations for Daniel Craig. When I watch "Skyfall," I expect it to be as good as it seems to be.
A few questions escaped me when reading the article. Will these occurrences start to become a trend? Will many actors/actresses be continued to be signed to more and more movies? In some cases, this is a good thing. Sometimes an actor/actress plays a character really well that they just have to be signed into another movie. However, if the next film is not necessarily related to the first one, it would be unfair to other actors/actresses. Every actor/actress should have the opportunity to audition against other actors/actresses that do not get special treatment.

Quite honestly, Daniel Craig isn't a very good bond. I prefer Shawn Connery.But I think you should take a shot at acting. Quite honestly, you are a very good actor.
ReplyDeleteI have not seen any James Bond movies in quite a while, yet I agree with you when you said that Daniel Craig is a good actor and so he could really embrace this character. I also have high expectations for this film and this actor, so when we watch it :), I hope it will be very good.
ReplyDeleteIt is also interesting to see older actors still taking on such energetic roles like you mentioned. Not only is it Daniel Craig, but also Robert Downy Jr. in Iron Man as well as Liam Neeson in Taken. Its refreshing to see them in such roles because they have more experience and that should never be overlooked just because of age.
over all i prefer daniel craig over shawn connery. i mean connery had a great way with words but craig, has that great body language.
