Actor Daniel Craig did an entire interview recently with a bloody cut on his head — without even realizing it. The James Bond star has only semi-recently completed his tenure as the world’s greatest super-spy in No Time to Die and has just finished up work on the follow-up to filmmaker Rian Johnson’s 2019 hit, Knives Out. While many past 007 actors have experienced declines in the roles they received post-Bond, Craig’s career continues to look as promising as ever, with commitments to three films and a TV series to date.
Often considered the best Bond to have ever taken on the famed role, Craig was responsible for bringing the character back from an era in which the name James Bond was often more likely to bring about eye rolls than looks of excitement. After decades of saving the world from diabolical plots formed by international super villains, the 007 franchise had become something of a cliché that was stubbornly refusing to acknowledge the changing times in any meaningful way. Arriving on the scene in 2006’s Casino Royale, the first change Craig brought to the role – having blonde hair — was immediately criticized by die-hard fans. But the film quickly proved him to be more than capable of handling the role, and his willingness to get his hands dirty in the process fuelled the franchise with a new degree of intensity. After five films as Bond, Craig’s willingness to put the role first at all costs is undeniable. The 53-year-old sustained numerous injuries throughout his 007 tenure, to the point where hearing that he was injured while filming a Bond film became a bit of a given.
