Daniel Craig looking tired and dishevelled as James Bond in Skyfall
Summary Daniel Craig's era of James Bond movies took on a much darker toner than the franchise had previously adopted, and there could be an explanation in a parody of the legendary film series as to why this happened. Every actor to play James Bond brought something new and refreshing to the role, and each man's era as 007 took on a slightly different vibe.
Neal Purvis & Robert Wade's Johnny English Was A Lighter James Bond Rowan Atkinson played the title character in the 2003 spoof Among the most successful James Bond parodies is 2003's Johnny English, with British comedy legend Rowan Atkinson in the title role. The movie was co-written by Neil Purvis and Robert Wade, who went on to contribute to every Bond movie script in the Daniel Craig era. Johnny English went on to become a trilogy, with a fourth movie announced in February 2024.
Johnny English Proves Purvis & Wade Can Write Lighter Bond Movies The Daniel Craig era writing duo also worked on 2 Brosnan Bond movies Close Daniel Craig's era may have been staunchly dark throughout the actor's run, but the fact Purvis and Wade had written Johnny English immediately before Casino Royale goes to show they aren't one-trick ponies. They're very capable of writing less intense spy movies, and they do it well.
Daniel Craig's Darker Era Was The Right Choice For The James Bond Franchise The Bond reboot was perfectly timed to update the 007 movies Close Although Casino Royale marked the start of a new kind of James Bond movie, it was about time the film series received a much-needed reboot. Not only was it EON's way of reclaiming the movie's title from a 1967 spoof movie, but the decision to go darker perfectly suited the modern age of cinema.
