MUMBAI: Casino Royale introduces JAMES BOND before he holds his license to kill. But Bond is no less dangerous! Catch the caustic, haunted and intense reinvention of 007 as Casino Royale premieres on STAR MOVIES on Saturday, Sept 06 @ 9 p.m.

The most successful James Bond film ever, Casino Royale earned a worldwide gross of US$594mil. Much of Casino Royale‘s success can be credited to Daniel Craig. As the sixth actor to portray Bond on the big screen, Craig proved his critics wrong and made the role his own.

"I don‘t think I would have taken the role if it had been a continuation of Bond as we knew him," explains Craig. "It just wouldn‘t have interested me."

Based on Ian Fleming‘s first book in the Bond series, Casino Royale traces the early career of 007. After his first government-sanctioned kill, the novice spy is granted double-0 status and given a licence to kill. "It was important for me to discover who this guy was," says the 40-year-old actor Craig. "By starting at the beginning we were able to do that. I just wanted to make sure that we were seeing a character go through some change within the movie."

In his first mission, Bond is on the trail of Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), a financier who channels money to terrorists. Hoping to bankrupt him, Bond travels to the Casino Royale in Montenegro and plays against the cash-strapped Le Chiffre in a game of high-stakes poker.

He is joined by Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), a British Treasury official responsible for keeping an eye on the government‘s money. Although wary of Lynd at first, Bond soon falls for her charms. But their romance jeopardizes the mission and will forever change Bond‘s life.

"James meets someone who changes his life because he falls in love with her," explains director Martin Campbell. "It very much shapes him. At the end of it he becomes Bond, the one that we all know."

Having helmed 1995‘s GoldenEye, Campbell returns to the franchise for Casino Royale. "GoldenEye was very much a traditional Bond," explains Campbell. "You still had the bad guys trying to destroy the world, all the usual scenarios. Casino Royale is much more down to earth."

Daniel Craig Holds all the Cards in Casino Royale
"There‘s one whopper of a reason why Casino Royale is the hippest, highest-octane Bond film in ages, and his name is Daniel Craig." - Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
"What a relief to escape the series‘ increasing bondage to high-tech gimmicks in favor of intrigue and suspense featuring richly nuanced characters and women who think the body‘s sexiest organ is the brain." - Kirk Honeycutt, The Hollywood Reporter
"This Bond is haunted, not yet housebroken, still figuring out the persona. In Casino Royale, the reset button has been pressed in the manner of Batman Begins." - David Edelstein, New York Magazine
"Daniel Craig isn‘t merely acceptable, but formidable. His Bond is at least the equal of the best ones before him, and beats all of them in sheer intensity." - Joe Morgenstern, The Wall Street Journal

"One aspect of the new Bond that works from first minute to last is the most important one, and that is Craig‘s performance." - Kenneth Turan, LA Times.
