Daniel Craig has imprinted our minds with his performance as the British spy 007 and it will take a lot of time for someone to step into his shoes. His dedication towards the role, his tortured and dangerous expressions and his incredibly realistic action sequences have made his James Bond movies the best ones in the franchise. He went so deep to make his performance authentic that once, he almost lost his private parts while filming a scene.
Casino Royale, the first movie of Daniel’s James Bond franchise, had a very brutal scene where the actor was being tortured by his arch-enemy Le Chiffre, played by Mads Mikkelsen. In that sequence, he almost hurt his private parts badly. Scroll on to learn what happened.
For the unversed, Daniel Craig had to sit on a chair n*ked while being tied up in harsh ropes in Casino Royale. Mads Mikkelson had to strike him over and over again using ropes. The movie was released in 2006, and almost fifteen years later, the actor, as per Variety, revealed what happened behind the scenes. Dan said, “I’m sitting in a chair n*ked, it was a thing that was the shape of my backside in the chair which I sat in.” The ‘thing’ was a piece of protection equipment made of plywood. The actor continued, “[The rope] was actually swinging right up under this thing, and it was hitting the chair as hard as it sounded.”
