Depending on your count,
Daniel Craig is now the 6th James Bond. And he's a no-name, as best I can tell (even after checking IMDB, I can't say I can recall his character from any of his movies that I have seen). Damn, it means my pick -
Colin Salmon - won't be Bond (at least not immediately).
They announced it on
Roger Moore's birthday. Coincidence? I don't know.
No word yet on who is playing Vesper. I'm betting it won't be Uma Thurman.
