Daniel Craig looks worlds away from James Bond as he steps out in a casual olive green jumper and navy blue flat cap for lavish meal out in Paris

Daniel Craig looked worlds apart from James Bond as he stepped out for dinner at restaurant Caviar Kaspia in Paris on Thursday.

The actor, 54, cut a casual figure in a blue coat and a dark green sweater which he teamed with a pair of grey trousers and black boots.

Movie star Daniel, who played 007 from 2006 to 2021, completed his look with a navy blue flat cap, opting for a less suave look than the fictional secret agent.

Daniel enjoyed his evening with a number of celebrity pals, including singer Rita Ora and her filmmaker partner Taika Waititi, as well as actor Casey Affleck.

Film star Daniel had his last venture as James Bond in 2021’s No Time To Die, which was released in September.

He first appeared as the character in Casino Royale in 2006 and also starred in 2008’s Quantum of Solace, 2012’s Skyfall and 2015’s Spectre.

His outing comes after The Russo brothers backed Rege-Jean Page to become the next James Bond.

The Bridgerton star was tipped as a possible replacement for Daniel Craig as 007 and the Russos – who directed the star on spy flick The Gray Man – think he has the charisma to take on the legendary role following his portrayal of the suave CIA boss Denny Carmichael in the Netflix movie.

In an interview with the Radio Times, Joe Russo said: ‘He’s fantastic. I mean, he has more charisma in his pinky than most people do in their entire body. So you know, we’d watch him do anything – I mean we’d watch him read the phonebook!’

Anthony Russo added: ‘(He’s a) very savvy performer and (has) so much charm.’

Rege shot to fame after playing the Duke of Hastings in Netflix’s hit period drama Bridgerton and previously said he was ‘flattered’ to be linked with the Bond role.

The 34-year-old actor said: ‘Ah, the B word. I think if you are British and do anything of note, that other people take notice of, then people will start talking about that. That’s fairly normal and I’m flattered to be in the category of Brits that people have noticed.’
