Daniel Craig

Biography

"As far as I'm concerned, I want to be nowhere else. It's difficult in film because everybody wants to make a safe bet with roles. But if you are going to do stuff then you should be getting strong reactions. I don't want audiences to be going, 'Yeah, that's all right.'" Craig is known for his intense and methodical approach to acting. He immerses himself deeply into his characters, often undergoing significant physical and emotional transformations to deliver authentic performances. Craig's dedication to realism has been evident in his portrayal of James Bond, where he performed many of his own stunts and maintained a rigorous fitness regimen. His acting style combines traditional British theatrical techniques with modern, gritty realism, making his characters both relatable and larger-than-life.

James Bond defeated by his most unexpected enemy, streaming

2006: an image of bygone and much happier times. Why did I write this article? At the Oscar 2025 ceremony there was a musical number with James Bond songs. It is curious because since 2021 there are no new 007 films and the most important news is that Amazon / MGM took over the ownership of the saga. The musical was a kind of farewell, a closing of cycle... because James Bond will no longer be what it was, and here I explain why. A few months ago I remember seeing Daniel Craig presenting the Irv

James Bond defeated by his most unexpected enemy, streaming

Daniel Craig’s James Bond Is the Ultimate On-Screen Killer

When it comes to on-screen killers, most people immediately think of villains, assassins, or masked murderers. But James Bond flips that expectation on its head. No one does it better than 007 himself. Whether it’s Craig’s brutal hand-to-hand combat, Brosnan’s smooth executions, or Connery’s cold-blooded charm, Bond has always been the killer standard of cinematic action. But now, with Amazon’s recent purchase of MGM, the studio that once carried Bond, his kill count is in new hands. Will they m

Good News: James Bond Is Still Worth US$1 Billion; Bad News: Amazon Bought It

It's been over three years since the latest James Bond film, No Time to Die, was released. While rumors about Daniel Craig's successor have come and gone in waves, we instead received the news that Bond now has a new "boss." According to multiple media reports, Amazon MGM Studios has spent an extra US$1 billion to acquire creative control of the Bond film series, meaning that long-time producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli will be stepping back. Shortly after this deal was disclosed,

QUEER (2024) and the Eternal Return of Counterculture

It’s tempting to watch Queer (2024) as just another literary adaptation, another arthouse film drenched in Luca Guadagnino’s signature sensuality. But this is Queer—a work by William S. Burroughs, a Beat Generation relic that has somehow made its way into our algorithm-driven, hyper-aware, politically charged present. This isn’t just a love letter to Burroughs—it’s a reminder that counterculture never truly dies. It just gets repackaged, commodified, and recycled, over and over again. Queer is a

Secret Emotions and Ayahuasca Only Belong to ‘Queer’

For starters, here’s an overview: “Queer” is definitely not a film I can appreciate, and it even gave me a terrible viewing experience, which explains my low rating for it. However, it could very well be a good film, because “Queer” might actually be very queer. Still of “Queer” A good film that I don’t like? Sounds contradictory, right? But this phenomenon has already appeared early on in my film-watching journey, especially when I first started watching master films with a learning purpose. Ba

Secret Emotions and Ayahuasca Only Belong to ‘Queer’

Guadagnino is one in a million, and QUEER is a reflection of that

"The difficulty is to convince someone else he is really part of you." William Lee, Queer's eccentric broken protagonist played by a magnificent Daniel Craig like I've never seen before, utters these words crestfallen and with a frozen sadness in his eyes. The passage of time, the wounds and the pain of failing to complete himself can be noticed in his demeanor and fake positive attitude. The fact is that this man who craves young meat—in the most poetic sense of the word if there's any—feels li

Breaking Down Queer

Luca Guadagnino 's Queer (2024) is a cinematic cocktail that mixes existential angst with a splash of homoerotic desire, garnished with a twist of 1950s nostalgia. Adapted from William S. Burroughs' semi-autobiographical novella, the film invites viewers into the hazy world of Bill Lee, a heroin-addicted expatriate navigating the labyrinthine streets of postwar Mexico City. Daniel Craig sheds his 007 tuxedo to embody Lee, delivering a performance that's as raw as a freshly mixed martini—shaken,

Daniel Craig saved Queer from oblivion

Have you ever wondered what makes a movie transcend mere entertainment to become a remarkable experience? Queer, directed by Luca Guadagnino and starring Daniel Craig , not only caught my attention, but proved to be a worthwhile cinematic journey. Based on the unfinished novel by William S. Burroughs, Queer ran the risk of being yet another pretentious project, lost in its own visual aesthetic. But it was Craig's gripping performance that introduced an essential new dimension to the film. His pe
