You
certainly
wouldn’t
believe
us
if
you
told
you
that
Daniel
Craig
turns
53
today.
The
British
actor
sure
ages
like
fine
wine
doesn’t
he?
Ever
since
he
walked
into
charm
his
way
into
our
hearts
in
Casino
Royale
in
2006,
the
man’s
popularity
continues
to
scale
new
heights.
Making
his
acting
debut
in
the
1992
film
The
Power
of
One,
Craig
has
delivered
some
masterpieces
going
on
to
impress
audiences
and
critics
alike.
While
he
adds
another
candle
to
his
cake
today,
we
can
surely
celebrate
the
actor
by
watching
one
of
these
five
movies
where
he
looked
his
dashing
and
dapper
best.
Casino
Royale
(2006)
The
movie
was
Daniel
Craig's
first
outing
as
British
special
agent
007
and
is
considered
to
be
his
best
Bond
film
by
many.
Released
in
November
2006,
the
movie
was
praised
by
critics
and
Craig
received
a
BAFTA
Award
nomination
as
Best
Actor
in
a
Leading
Role.
Watching
him
claw
his
ways
from
the
jaws
of
death
to
beat
Le
Chiffre
on
the
poker
table
was
a
sight
for
sore
eyes.
And
with
that
fascinating
climax
that
breaks
his
heart,
it
was
a
performance
that
was
only
the
sign
of
what
was
to
come
our
way
in
future
007
films
Skyfall
(2012)
Sam
Mendes’
directorial
Skyfall
was
a
welcome
relief
between
Quantum
of
Solace
and
Spectre,
giving
the
audience
a
well-deserved
Bond
movie
after
four
long
years.
Gorgeously
shot,
with
some
fine
performances
from
Craig,
Dame
Judi
Dench
as
Agent
M
and
Javier
Bardem
as
the
antagonist
Silva,
Skyfall
surely
ranks
among
the
best
of
Bond
films.
While
some
argue
that
the
movie
surpasses
the
fandom
of
Casino
Royale,
we
leave
it
up
to
the
readers
to
decide
their
favourite
amongst
the
two.
Knives
Out
(2019)
Rian
Johnson’s
whodunnit
was
a
fresh
breath
of
air
with
an
ensemble
cast
with
Ane
De
Armes,
Chris
Evans,
Joseph
Gordon
Levitt,
Katherine
Langfort,
etc,
but
it
was
Craig’s
perfect
detective
brilliancy
on-screen,
who
stole
the
show!
The
Girl
With
The
Dragon
Tattoo
(2011)
A
psychological
crime
thriller,
The
Girl
with
the
Dragon
Tattoo
is
based
on
a
2005
novel
written
by
Stieg
Larsson.
Daniel
Craig,
plays
the
role
of
journalist
Mikael
Blomkvist
alongside
Rooney
Mara
as
Lisbeth
Salander.
The
film
tells
the
story
of
Blomkvist's
(Craig)
investigation
to
find
out
what
happened
to
a
girl
from
a
wealthy
family
who
disappeared
40
years
ago.
A
detective
thriller,
the
movie
received
praises
aplenty
for
its
brilliant
direction
and
acting.
No
Time
To
Die
(2021)
We
admit,
the
movie
has
not
been
released
in
the
theatres
yet,
but
as
Craig’s
possible
last
stint
as
the
007
detective,
the
movie
has
already
made
all
the
right
noises
with
its
announcement
and
a
very
stylish
trailer.
Considered
by
cinephiles
to
be
the
most-awaited
movie
of
the
year,
No
Time
To
Die
is
surely
going
to
break
all
records!
