The renowned Daniel Wroughton Craig CMG is an English-American actor who gained international fame playing the secret agent James Bond in the film series, beginning with Casino Royale and in four further installments, up to No Time to Die.
In 2022, Craig starred in a contemporary revival of Macbeth opposite Ruth Negga on Broadway. Variety described his performance by writing Craig has some strong moments but does not capture the transformation of Macbeth into a power-hungry tyrant. The Guardian’s Alexis Soloski rated the production 3/5, stating, Craig’s burly Macbeth, clad handsomely in Suttirat Larlab’s modern dress costumes, is every inch a man of action and a soldier, even in a silky bathrobe, entirely convincing in motion, less persuasive when zipping through Macbeth’s equivocations.
