Daniel Craig is really hairy now
Twice before last year, we've reported on the new look of Daniel Craig following his departure from the James Bond role. And we're doing it again. How the former 007 turned up at the Olympics in Paris is once again a head-turner.
It's no secret that Daniel Craig doesn't look the same as he did in his legendary James Bond days. We could only recently track his latest image change through a screenshot from his new film "Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery". But the 56-year-old has indeed adopted a new look off-screen as well. This new look was on display on the sidelines of the Olympic Games in Paris.
Like many of his prominent colleagues, Craig made a stop at the sporting event in the French capital. And, of course, he ran into several photographers who recognized him despite his changed appearance. In summary, it can be said: The Brit is quite hairy compared to before.
As an agent in the service of Her Majesty, whom he portrayed from 2006 to 2021, Craig was always seen with short hair and clean-shaven. The current images from Paris show him with longer hair styled to the side and a gray stubble beard. Craig attended the Olympics as a brand ambassador and was spotted at equestrian and skateboarding events.
"Knives Out 3" is expected in 2025
About two months ago, a shot from the set of "Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery" already hinted at Craig's new look. In the upcoming third installment of the "Knives Out" series, he will return to the big screen in his legendary role of private detective Benoit Blanc with a completely new look.
In addition to Craig, "Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery" features actors like Josh O'Connor, Glenn Close, Josh Brolin, Mila Kunis, and Jeremy Renner. As with the first two films, Rian Johnson is responsible for directing and writing.
Further details about "Knives Out 3" are not yet known. A Netflix release is expected in 2025. The first film, "Knives Out: Murder Mystery", was released in 2019, and the second film, "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery", was released in 2022.
I'm not planning to return to the role of James Bond, as my focus is on the new character I'm portraying in "Knives Out 3".
Despite the transformation, it seems some people still recognize me, as I was approached by photographers at the Olympics in Paris.
