Daniel Craig is honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

The late Roger Moore, who portrayed Bond in seven films from 1973 to 1985, had his pink and terrazzo star put next to Daniel Craig’s. The star is located at 7007 Hollywood Boulevard, which is the 2,704th on the Walk of Fame. Daniel Craig is honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

On Wednesday, Daniel Craig received a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, just days before his farewell film as James Bond is released in the United States. Craig’s fifth and last excursion as the suave British secret agent, No Time to Die, brings an end to a 15-year run.

The actor’s pink and terrazzo star, which was put next to that of the late Roger Moore, who played Bond in seven films from 1973 to 1985, was the 2,704th on the Walk of Fame at the aptly numbered 7007 Hollywood Boulevard.

“To be paraded all over Hollywood is an amazing honor,” Daniel Craig remarked. “I am a very, very, very pleased man to be on this pavement surrounded by all of these legends.”

The dedication event was attended by Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, as well as Rami Malek, who plays the villain Safin in No Time to Die.

Malek called Craig, 53, “old school and classy,” adding, “I can’t wait to see where (your career) takes you next.”

After three delays because of the coronavirus pandemic, No Time to Die took in a bumper $121 million at the box office on its opening weekend in Britain and international movie theatres.

Daniel Craig’s next act will be playing Shakespeare’s Macbeth on Broadway next March.
