So long Daniel Craig... The identity of the new James Bond has been revealed!

I've gone to many Bond films for one main reason; Trying to understand what all the fuss was about. They are OK, but not on the order of something like Spiderman. I'll probably still go sometimes, but most of the excitement has worn off.

Sean Connery deeply feared being typecast as James Bond and felt creatively stifled by the role, leading him to quit the franchise multiple times. He grew to despise the overwhelming association with the character and sought to prove his versatility as an actor, ultimately succeeding with diverse roles in later films.
Daniel Craig is a seriously talented actor. See him in Knives Out (2019): A critically acclaimed whodunit where Craig plays detective Benoit Blanc.
Another fine Craig performance can be seen in: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011): A tense thriller showcasing his dramatic acting.
For what it's worth, Connery's role as Professor Henry Jones, Sr. really portraid his talent for acting.

Sean wouldn't be the first actor who tried to escape typecasting. I have seen him in a couple of other films and was able to disassociate his Bond character. I'm sure Daniel Craig is a fine actor. He's just not one I'm interested in seeing in films.

Craig seemed like an odd choice to me too, but then you dress anyone up in a tux, and they start to look a little more dashing.

OFF TOPIC
There's almost a magical connection between us and our favorite actors --for us, they've got pizzazz, oomph, style, a mysterious something that we're drawn to and want to watch. For me it's Jodie Foster, Nick Nolte and many others.
