With their new James Bond game coming out next year plus plans to make a series out of the Bond franchise, Activision decided not to get Daniel Craig as the face of their James Bond. Daniel Craig's a big star - it'll be hard to fit sessions of dialog recording into his busy schedule, he'll have Bond movies to shoot - all that and he's expensive, too. So instead, we'll be getting Adam Croasdell.

This guy


The actor reveals his new role through an interview with BBC Asian Network. "Oddly enough I have just played James Bond in the new James Bond video game - how weird is that?" he said. I don't know what the future holds, but I'm always into varying up what comes my way, trying new things."

Croasdell has been in movies such as "Too Much, Too Young" in 2007, "The Chase" in 2006, "Leonardo" in 2003. His latest role is Dr. Al Jenkins in the BBC soap "EastEnders."

Atleast he's a heterosexual. I liked Casino Royale, but Quantom wasn't all that, even the worst Brosnan bond movie "Die Another day" was better than any of the two Craig was in. Get Brosnan!

» Gonna have to disagree

Quantum wasn't that great true, but Casino Royale is leagues better than most of Brosnan's movies



I like Craig as Bond, he actually looks a lot more like how Bond is described in the books

I didn't like the two new ones.. my mom liked Quantum Solace, but I didn't.. I didn't mind Die Another Day, I thought Brosnan was a great Bond.

This is a CHEAP move by Activision. No Craig? No Bond. ...Really disappointing after coming off of the QOS videogame, which I thought was done really well. And, for the record: I would recommend that you all watch Casino Royale back-to-back with Quantum of Solace. QOS is actually a VERY good movie; it's just such a strong 'part 2' that some of the dramatic moods and themes zip by you if you haven't just watched 'part 1'.

For once a good decision by Activision. I absolutely HATE Daniel Craig as a James Bond. Pierce Brosnan and Sean Connery Bonds FTW!
