Being James Bond: Apple TV streams Daniel Craig documentary for free

Daniel Craig opens up about Being James Bond in a new documentary, which is streaming for free on Apple TV.
The film, from Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM), is a 45-minute retrospective in which Craig candidly reflects on his 15-year stint in the 007 suit. Including never-before-seen archival footage from Casino Royale to the upcoming 25th film No Time To Die, Craig shares his personal memories in conversation with 007 producers, Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, in the lead-up to his final performance as James Bond.
“A lot of people here have worked on five pictures with me,” Craig told the producers. “I’ve loved every single second of these movies, and especially this one because I’ve got up every morning and I’ve had the chance to work with you guys, and that has been one of the greatest honours of my life.”
Said Broccoli in the film: “Daniel has just taken this, the character, the series, the whole thing, to a place that is so… extraordinary. And so emotionally satisfying.”
“It’s also emotionally tough being Daniel’s last one. It’s tough on Barbara, it’s tough on me,” added Wilson.
The film is directed by Baillie Walsh (Flashbacks of a Fool) and produced by Charlie Thomas, Carla Poole and Special Treats Productions. Colin Burrows served as executive producer. It is streaming free on Apple TV until 7th October, the day before No Time to Die’s US release, and a week after its 30th September theatrical debut in the UK.
