The reboot series borrowed several details of Bond's early life originally created by Fleming, while incorporating geopolitical events that occurred in the 1990s and 2000s. Fictional character biography Character's life prior to the films

After the film premiered, however, Craig won universal acclaim for his characterization of Bond, with critics praising him for bringing both a dark, morally ambiguous edge to 007 and a humanity and vulnerability to the character that had not been seen in previous portrayals. The casting of the blond-haired, 5'10' Craig was initially controversial, as the actor did not fit the traditional portrayal of Bond as 'tall, dark, and handsome'. Director Martin Campbell decided to cast Craig after seeing his performance in the 2004 thriller film Layer Cake.

In October 2005, Daniel Craig was cast as Bond for the first film in the reboot series, Casino Royale, after signing a deal to play the character in four films. Paul Haggis, who co-wrote the script with Neal Purvis and Robert Wade, said that they wanted 'to do for Bond what Batman Begins did for Batman'. No, at the beginning of his career as 007, a secret agent in the British secret service agency MI-6 with the discretionary ' license to kill'. Wilson, who own the rights to the franchise and the character, decided to portray Bond, who had been an ageless character in 20 films since 1962's Dr. Producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. In 2004, two years after Pierce Brosnan's final screen appearance as Bond in Die Another Day, Eon Productions decided to reboot the James Bond franchise with an adaptation of Fleming's 1953 novel Casino Royale, the first novel in the Bond series. This version of Bond is killed at the end of the lattermost film, making him, to date, the only version of the character to die. The rebooted series spanned five films – Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace (2008), Skyfall (2012), Spectre (2015), and No Time To Die (2021) – all starring Craig. Portrayed by British actor Daniel Craig, this interpretation of the character, and the actor portraying him, received critical praise for a 'caustic, haunted, intense reinvention of 007' – a darker, more realistic tone than the lighter characterizations portrayed in past Bond films. James Bond is a fictional character and the titular main protagonist of Eon Productions' rebooted James Bond film series, first introduced in the 2006 film Casino Royale.
