 Daniel Craig Detailed Biography
Daniel Craig was born in 1968 in Chester, England. He grew up in Liverpool, but moved to London when he was 16. Here, the aspiring thespian trained at the National Youth Theatre and graduated from the prestigious Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Daniel Craig made his motion picture debut in 1992 with The Power Of One. In the film directed by John Avildsen, Daniel Craig had the bit-role of Sergeant Botha. Over the last few years, he's moved into rather high-visibility projects, being seen as bad guy Alex West in Angelina Jolie's videogame adaptation Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, and rubbed shoulders with Hollywood's acting aristocracy -- Paul Newman, Tom Hanks, Jude Law -- in Road To Perdition, where Daniel Craig played Newman's son, Connor Rooney.

But Daniel Craig's real claims to stardom have only popped up in the last couple of years, with some very ambitious projects. In the biopic Sylvia, Daniel played the poet Ted Hughes with wonderful delicacy, perfectly complementing Gwyneth Paltrow in the title role. Plaudits were heaped on Daniel Craig after his work in Enduring Love, a fine adaptation of the Ian McEwan novel where Craig masterfully essayed the difficult role of Joe. And then came Layer Cake (left), the Matthew Vaughn smash British hit. One of those cult ensemble comedies in the Guy Ritchie genre, it made leading man Daniel Craig, playing the bizarre character XXXX, a household name across Britain.

The smoke has cleared over the enigmatically shrouded movie house, and EON Productions has virtually confirmed their new James Bond. The words Daniel Craig are crowding search engines globally even as you read this. Keeping in step with tradition, the new 007 is an obscure actor from the British isles, nearly unknown to the rest of the world. Here's a quick guide to knowing MI-5's newest recruit: the secret agent beyond compare, the ruthless womaniser we so helplessly love, the alcoholic Aston Martin driver we are all jealous of.
