GlassOnion is just the latest film to show us Daniel Craig's weirdo side, and we are here for it.
As great as it is for an actor to take on an iconic role with a built-in fan base, there is always a challenge for these stars to work on other projects where they try to do something different. Christopher Reeve will always be best known as Superman, even though he did some fascinating work outside the superhero genre; the countless viewers who went to see Chris Evans in the Captain America films didn’t show up for Gifted or Before We Go.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Sean Connery took on mostly action-centric roles after exiting the Bond franchise, while Roger Moore and George Lazenby seemed to disappear from the industry entirely. Timothy Dalton certainly did some interesting work after setting aside his role as 007, but he was no longer the “draw” that he was during his tenure as Bond.
However, Craig has shown an ability to poke fun at himself that many action stars do not; whether he’s popping up as a goofy stormtrooper in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, appearing in a comical short film for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, or doing late night routines as Bond with Stephen Colbert, Craig has always indicated that he doesn’t take anything he’s doing too seriously.
Benoit Blanc is a sleuth for today’s audiences; he lacks the self-congratulatory ego of Kenneth Branagh’s Hercule Poirot or Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sherlock Holmes, as he actually cares about the innocent people that are caught in the midst of these crimes. It’s Blanc’s sincerity that makes him so endearing, and it’s also why he feels so out of place in the world of high society.
