As a longtime gamer with countless hours spent immersed in various digital worlds, I must admit that this Daniel Craig pronunciation revelation has left me feeling rather like a noob who just stumbled upon an Easter egg hidden deep within a game’s code.
Daniel Craig’s name has been in the spotlight recently, whether it’s through movies like Luca Guadagnino’s “Queer” in 2024 or “Wake Up, Dead Man: a Knives Out Mystery” in 2025. It seems that many of us have been mispronouncing the name of this former James Bond actor for quite some time without realizing it. However, a viral late-night clip has made sure we won’t forget how to say his surname correctly anytime soon.
The issue seems to be there as well, because our pronunciation of “Daniel” has been accurate all along. However, with Daniel Craig appearing once more on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in his James Bond role, he decided to clarify this point:
I have a bone to pick with you [after] six shows. … It’s a dipthong. I don’t say ‘Col-bette.’
Without getting too playful, it’s surprising to learn that “Daniel Craig” is pronounced differently than one might expect. In fact, while revisiting my interviews from 2021 for our No Time to Die, I unknowingly fell into the same mistake. If given another opportunity to converse with him, I’ll make certain to address him correctly next time.
Reflecting on this intriguing chat, I can’t help but draw parallels. Much like an SNL Five-Timers Club member who finds a sense of ease after multiple appearances, I believe spending time on Stephen Colbert’s show might cultivate the same comfortable familiarity. After all, it was here that Daniel Craig announced his Bond 25 return back in 2017 – a memorable moment indeed!
In Daniel Craig’s interview, he casually brings up another instance of that comfort, hinting at it subtly. To clarify the distinction, Stephen Colbert asks additional questions, but their exchange is friendly, not hostile, as one might expect in a disagreement or feud. So, here’s a clip from The Late Show where you can observe this interaction:
It’s likely that many people will bookmark or save this video as a reminder about this topic, so I don’t think the popularity of Daniel Craig’s elocution lesson with Stephen Colbert will fade quickly. This is beneficial since his new film titled “Queer” is currently in limited release, with a nationwide release scheduled for December 13th.
It’s expected that “Wake Up, Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery” will be streamable with a Netflix subscription towards the end of 2025, unless the comments made by Daniel Craig about theatrical distribution have reached the right people to make the third installment a remarkable cinematic experience. I truly hope they did.
