Daniel, Craig is well known for his role as the iconic James Bond. Portraying the 007, agent in movies like – Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace, Skyfall, and Spectre made a reputation for him in Hollywood as an action star who does wonders in drama and thrillers. The audience was not ready to see him in any other role, but he managed to break this typecast with his fantastic performance in the comedy movie – Logan Lucky and Knives Out. Comedy was not the only genre he chose to break his typecast with. Portraying James Bond had made him a hero-like figure in the eyes of the audience. So he even undertook some villainous roles, where he portrayed, morally grey characters like those in the film – The Golden Compass, Flashbacks of a Fool, and others.
