Daniel Craig Honored with Hollywood Star

With Daniel Craig’s final James Bond movie No Time to Die coming to theaters Oct. 8, he is honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The iconic spy received his moment on Oct. 6 at 7007 Hollywood Boulevard.

The location is specifically chosen for the last three digits of the address that correlates to the Bond-related films. According to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, this was the reason for the placement.

Daniel Craig’s Impact as James Bond

Craig has portrayed James Bond in soon-to-be five “007” films. No Time to Die will be released Friday. Sadly, the upcoming film will serve as Craig’s last time as Bond.

“The idea that my name will be alongside those of so many actors who have inspired me during my life is really quite incomprehensible and not something I could have ever imagined,” Craig tells Variety. “So all I can really say is that it is an enormous, mind-boggling privilege to have been invited to join the road.”

Fans will be thrilled when they see that their stars are appropriately located at 7007 Hollywood Boulevard,” said Ana Martinez, producer of the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
