This week's post will be about the poll I conducted about 3 weeks ago. I asked you who your favourite James Bond was and you guys chose Daniel Craig. In this post, I'll give some brief information about him.
Daniel Wroughton Craig was born in Chester, England in 1968. After attending Hilbre High School there, he moved to London to join the National Youth Theatre when he was 16.He studied at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London and graduated from there in 1991. His first leading role on screen was as a co-star in the 1996 BBC Television Serial "Our Friends in the North".
After playing in several English movies, he started appearing in American movies such as "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider(2001)" with Angelina Jolie, "Road to Perdition" with Paul Newman and Tom Hanks, and Steven Spielberg's "Munich"(2005). His last movie before the James Bond series was "Infamous"(2006).
In October 2005, Craig signed a five-film contract with EON productions to portray James Bond. Four of the previous Bond actors supported Daniel Craig as the new Bond. Clive Owen, who was linked with the character, defended Craig, too. Being born in 1968, Craig was the first James Bond to be born after the series started.
His first movie "Casino Royale"(2006) was a huge box office success, being the highest grossing Bond movie with $594 million. After "Casino Royale", Craig played in "Quantum of Solace"(2008), the 22nd movie of the series. Craig stated that his favourite Bond was Sean Connery.
He married Scottish actress Fiona Loudon in 1992, whom he has a daughter from. However, he ended this marriage in 1994. Currently, he is in a relationship with American film producer Satsuki Mitchell. He is a fan of Liverpool FC.

I read your article and I really liked it, but if you ask me you'd better you wait for more ideas when you organize a poll. However, still good job !!!
For me Daniel Craig is the best James Bond character too. The reason is that I only watched James Bond films which he had played in so I don't really have an idea about otjer James Bond's. However the technology and special effects that are used in the films also affect the performances of the actors and actresses so comparing like this won't be a good way to choose the best James Bond.
