Daniel Craig Deserved No Time to Die Oscar Nomination, Say 007 Producers
James Bondproducers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson believe that Daniel Craig should have received award recognition for his performance as the iconic spy in 2021's No Time To Die. No Time To Die is the 25th film to focus on the famed British agent (or the 27th if you include the two non-canonical 007 films), and also the final appearance of Craig as Bond. The film, helmed by Cary Joji Fukunaga, follows Bond as he's on the trail of a mysterious villain (Rami Malek) with access to dangerous new technology.
While Craig's Bond career has had some ups and downs, he has managed to cement his place as one of the top 007 actors. Now that Craig's final outing as the character has been released, the hunt is on for the actor who will take up the mantle. This is no easy task, as after films like Casino Royale and Skyfall quickly became classics within the 007 franchise, Craig has left a pretty big tuxedo to fill. And No Time To Die was certainly a strong finish for him. Despite this, Craig has received very little recognition during awards season for his final Bond effort.

Broccoli has stated that for her, Craig is so convincing as Bond that people forget that he is an actor. Of course, No Time To Die was nominated for three Academy Awards. While Wilson is grateful for the recognition, he still feels that Craig «not getting any nods is really amazing.»
