Daniel Craig Takes The Colbert Questionert

[@AC-bw4xw]

"Nothing. We become stars." Daniel proving once again that he's the greatest ❤

[@xScooterAZx]

Reminds me of a movie about a Dragon dying and going up to become a star. It was with Dennis Quaid and Sean Connery as the Dragon. It was "Dragonheart".

[@BrennFilm]

He is right. After we die, all our molecules stay on earth, which will be swallowed by our sun in 5 billion years time. That will than implode and it will spew its guts into space from which a new star will eventually be born.

[@klasi58]

I love how Daniel actually gave some thought to answering every question. He feels so genuine and down to earth, with no 'I am a big star who you should worship" attitude. ❤️👏🏼

[@d.263]

He's a Pisces. We're (usually?) considered genuine, sensitive, and thoughtful. We should all aspire to Daniel's level of lovely 🥰

[@Markle2k]

He looks like he’s listening to Stephen through an interpreter.

[@MTMF.london]

@@Markle2k For someone who plays a super spy who makes decisions on the fly regarding the dangerous situations he finds himself in or whether to eliminate his enemies, I find his indecisiveness a bit odd.

[@KatkaJessie]

@@MTMF.london that's why he is a good actor ☺️

[@gameroftheyear1000]

He’s from what I’ve heard in the camp of the likes of Christian Bale when it comes to acting. He loves the art of acting and will always go to lengths to get into character, whether it’s bodily, learning an accent or background, but he hates all the publicity that goes with being a movie star and always tries to go Incognito when he’s out and about trying to live his personal life which I would get. I’d hated having a camera following me around every time I go grocery shopping.

[@margaretpeabody243]

I like the simplicity of Daniel's answers. They seemed genuine and heartfelt.

[@emu_warrior]

aah yes, "Orange", "both", "black mamba". He's so deep and wise us plebians couldn't come close to his greatness....

Are we just going to ignore the fact that Daniel Craig said "Oh, fuck me." so quietly and smoothly that it didn't get bleeped on national television?

Came to say the same thing

"Joan Armatrading - Love and Affection" Excellent answer.

[@Thats_so_maha]

It’s insane how I don’t know him personally but you can FEEL how genuine and kind he is! Mr Graig much love from Morocco!

[@batgurrl]

I adore this segment. Would love to see more of them. Daniel Graig seems to prove they are NOT given the questions ahead of time😂

[@isaiahayers1550]

True, and yet, they're the same questions to everybody who gets this Questionert. Perhaps he just doesn't watch the show, or they don't know that they'll be asked ahead of time.

[@ross-carlson]

@@isaiahayers1550 Of COURSE he doesn't watch the show/segment - this would be worse if he did.

[@d.263]

I can't believe he named Love and Affection by Joan Armatrading!!! I was just listening to that song (for the millionth time) yesterday. Obscure and lovely choice. 💜

[@thaopham5989]

Just love him, such a humble man.

[@steveng8251]

[@DorothyPotterSnyder]

Can I just say that Daniel Craig's pocket square is a master touch.

[@annsmith-reiser3362]

Love and Affection by Joan Armatrading...great answer!

[@wrenlinwhitelight3007]

I love how at 3:00 he starts by saying "nothing" which is most likely reality - but follows it with "we become stars!" and everyone's like yea cool okay!

[@hayzed9491]

Can't believe Daniel came out with that, same thing I tell my little boy we come from stars and return to them.

[@deansheets]

We are literally made of stardust, Dr Tyson did a podcast on it.

Everytime I watch these I take the Colbert Questionaire in my head and I find it pretty motivating weirdly enough. Really helps me focus and know myself, what I want and where I want to be.

[@jamesgoines7663]

We should try this with family and friends.

[@judeirwin2222]

Questionnaire

[@visions_of_noah]

Can we appreciate how brilliant his five words were - he made the most with the limited number of words he had.

[@marigoldruff]

Love and Affection by Joan Armatrading is truly one of the most beautiful songs ever written. So impressed he picked that song.

[@Spectre124]

ok... He's so freaking funny and I had no idea. I knew he was charming, but some of his answers had me rolling! That last answer was comedic gold. LOL😂

[@jlt131]

it was more clever than even he expected i think - just as you're making the most of life, it ends too soon. loved that.

[@djdollase]

Mentioned Joan Armatrading! Anyone remember her? One of the greats rarely heard about these days! Good to hear her name, Daniel!

[@betterdays105]

One of the best. Seen her at least once a decade beginning in the 1970's. Last time City Winery NYC in 2018.

[@mechanicaldavid4827]

I've got "Drop the Pilot" running through my head right now...

[@BunMinami]

Yeah, I was definitely impressed by his mention of Armatrading!

[@debrabrabenec3731]

Yes! I've loved her music for over 40 years!

"As well as you deserve and as well as I would like...", Stephen.... is cleaning up Bilbo's statement, “I don’t know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve”

[@jenniperez1418]

Loved it- when he said he gives his clothes to charity. And then! when he started to say Show- I immediately thought Joan Armatrading! then he said Love and Affection~ yes! Love you even more now!

[@IainLikesHistory]

Joan Armatrading is a massively underated artist. Great choice.

[@reginafris6822]

Love and Affection is an awesome song!

[@annettewelz4591]

Yes Daniel, " Love and Affection" !!! We did get to know you.

[@EricBridges]

lol - his response to that last question is perfect. unbounded optimism bumping up against real-world limitations, all in 5 words. he's a properHemingway, but like, if Hemingway wasn't so depressing.

[@DrNancyLivingCoCreatively]

Craig is so wonderfully thoughtful.

[@MTMF.london]

He looked a bit dazed and confused.

[@DanielCraig520]

Oh thanks my great fans you can also be wonderful just has I am.

[@Jacqueline2279]

I love that he said stars. I've always told my kids when we die we 5hen go into the stars. Their granddad died and I wanted them to know they could still see him.

Nothing we become stars 🌠

[@chrisl418]

There IS something after life...I know because when my Dad died end of 2020, I could feel him approach from the other room, pause in front of me then move on through the wall at the end of the livingroom. My sister came out from the other room then, and said I should probably come to the other room. I knew Dad was gone, of course, but my sister told me she thought I should come in to say goodbye. Later she told me, "He was still alive when you came in." I didn't refute it at the time. The night after his memorial service we were staying out in Wisconsin at an Airbandb (spelling?) as Dad had wanted to be buried in his distant home town. I told my sister that I'd known Dad was gone because he'd come to say goodbye to me before he left. I told her in more detail than I wrote the above. It was probably the greatest gift Dad could ever give me as I'd lost most of my faith after some rough life experiences. How Dad knew I would sense him there...maybe he didn't know. But I did and just as my sis knew when he was gone, I also knew when he was moving through the livingroom toward where I sat, paused then went on his way. He wasn't just my Dad. He was my friend. I miss him so much. I hope to see him again when it's my time. Since I had a heart attack a month ago, maybe it won't be so long. I'm not afraid anymore.

[@alishavpthomas8136]

He was so close - "Make the most of it" was right there

[@michelebechard1523]

"Nothing, we become stars 🌟 " I've always thought this, as well ❤

Never mind the “fuck me” when will Stephen learn to pronounce Craig properly 😀

[@weirdunclebob]

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking that! "Cregg!"

[@marydonohoe8200]

This guy is heavy duty. The most amazing thing for me about this interview was the fact that when Stephen asked him about the most dangerous animal, my immediate reaction was the black mamba. Then about five seconds later he says it. But there were more-BLT, Indiana Jones #1-weird. Maybe it’s generational. 😉🙏🏼💥

[@isaiahayers1550]

Do you feel like Raiders holds up? I watched it for the first time a few months ago and thought it was kind of awful. There's some good comedy here and there and some decent action sequences, and a wonderful score, but there's also some bad acting, bad dialogue, cheesy moments, bad dubbing, etc.

[@jlt131]

@@isaiahayers1550 the bad acting and cheesy moments are just par for the course in 80s action flicks, no?

Of all the people who have been asked these questions, I answered the most in line with Mr. Craig. My favorite action film is "The French Connection" with Gene Hackman, hands down.
