Daniel Craig Unveiled As New James Bond

By JILL LAWLESS, Associated Press

LONDON - Blond. James Blond.

Daniel Craig, a 37-year-old, sandy-haired Englishman was introduced Friday as the new James Bond, ending months of speculation.

His selection was revealed as he was whisked down the Thames River aboard a military Rigid Raider boat to a news conference.

Craig replaces Pierce Brosnan in the role of the suave spy in "Casino Royale," due in theaters next year.

-I like the choice. He has a certain Steve McQueen-ness about him (without the cancer 8[ )

I like him, too. And he's totally a Steve, which is great because I think he'll be a good blend of suave and tough-guy. Like we were saying yesterday, everyone forgets Bond is a soldier!

I bet the grittier action of some of the Brosnan movies and Craig will be a nice mix.

And why is everyone making a big deal that he's blond?

Don't die, Blondie! Don't die!!
