Model-Job - Those who know Daniel Craig only as James Bond may now wonder

Daniel Craig's versatility as an actor has been proven in every one of his films, but his latest variation of himself is currently being showcased in a campaign for the luxury fashion house Loewe. With long hair parted deeply to one side, an open belt in his jeans, and a patterned wool sweater, he could be mistaken for a simple man in his self-assured pose. It takes a second glance to realize: yes, it's him, presenting the Fall/Winter 2024 collection.

After surprising many James Bond fans as the agent in Her Majesty's secret service, Daniel Craig can now reveal another side of himself: the clown, which some saw him as back then. Craig struggled with the role as James Bond, and it took a lot of persuasion, or power and money, for him to make his final appearance in "No Time to Die." Now, the smoking jacket, tie, and good manners are a thing of the past.

Daniel Craig can do it easily

The "ZDF heute-show" found an intriguing way to present the versatility of the actor. They had him step in as a politician for the major parties. Once again, Craig is convincing in every role. Whether in a dark blue suit with a light blue shirt and a discreetly patterned tie for the CDU, as a disheveled SPD man with a slung shoulder bag and a rolled-up shirt, leaning against a thick car for the FDP, or with a squinted gaze and another wool sweater for the Greens – he convinces for every party.

Despite his quirks, the actor doesn't lack new film offers. It was recently announced that he will return in "Knives Out 3."

Pierce Brosnan, known for his iconic role as James Bond in the mid-90s, has expressed his admiration for Daniel Craig's portrayal in the latest Bond film, "No Time To Die." Sean Connery, the original James Bond, and Roger Moore, who also played the role, have also praised Craig's performance.

In an interview, when asked about his favorite James Bond, Craig mentioned that Sean Connery's style and Roger Moore's humor were aspects he admired in their portrayals of the character. He added that he aimed to bring his own unique take to the role, drawing inspiration from both Connery and Moore's versions.

Daniel Craig's journey as James Bond has been marked by his resemblance to two of the most influential Bond actors, Sean Connery and Roger Moore, while still managing to establish his own distinct style and charm.
