Daniel Craig Talks Dealing with Fame While Accepting Award at Montclair Film Festival

Daniel Craig was the Tribute Honoree at the 2022 Montclair Film Festival last week!

The Late Show‘s Stephen Colbert hosted a conversation with Daniel at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center and a packed house got to witness the chat.

During the Q&A, Daniel talked about the spotlight that was put on him when he accepted the role of James Bond.

“I used to hate it, but I think that was fame I didn’t like,” Daniel said (via GeekVibesNation.com). “I had to get used to being famous which is still so foreign to me.”

“Everybody f–king hated me,” Daniel said about the initial response to his casting.

Daniel stars in the new movie Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, which will hit theaters for one week only over the Thanksgiving holiday before debuting on Netflix around Christmas.
