Chosen by producer Creator/BarbaraBroccoli for the role in the 2006 reboot of the franchise, ''Film/{{Casino Royale|2006}}'', he reprised it in 2008's ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'', 2012's ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', 2015's ''Film/{{Spectre}}'' and 2021's ''Film/NoTimeToDie''. He was also used as the design base and voice of Bond in ''VideoGame/BloodStone'', the ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'' tie-in video game, and the remake of the ''[[VideoGame/GoldenEye1997 GoldenEye 007]]'' game for the Wii, and escorted none other than [[UsefulNotes/ElizabethII Queen Elizabeth II]] in a short film for the UsefulNotes/{{London}} UsefulNotes/OlympicGames' opening ceremony in 2012. Having played Bond for 15 years, his tenure has chronologically surpassed that of the previous longest, Creator/RogerMoore, whose tenure lasted 12 years (though Moore starred in seven Bond films while Craig starred in five, since Creator/EonProductions notoriously slowed down their film output after 2008).
