Principal photography took place in the Bahamas, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the Czech Republic, with interior sets built at Pinewood Studios and Barrandov Studios. Casting involved a widespread search for a new actor to succeed Pierce Brosnan as Bond the choice of Craig, announced in October 2005, proved controversial.

In the film, Bond is on assignment to bankrupt terrorist financier Le Chiffre (Mikkelsen) in a high-stakes poker game at the Casino Royale in Montenegro.įollowing Die Another Day (2002), Eon decided to reboot the franchise, attempting to counteract fun elements of previous entries and instead explore a less experienced, more vulnerable Bond. Directed by Martin Campbell from a screenplay by Neil Purvis, Robert Wade, and Paul Haggis, it stars Daniel Craig in his first appearance as Bond, alongside Eva Green, Mads Mikkelsen, Judi Dench, and Jeffrey Wright. Besides, one can't argue with a version of James Bond that can be enjoyed in only 51 minutes.Casino Royale is a 2006 spy film, the twenty-first in the Eon Productions James Bond series, and the third screen adaptation of Ian Fleming's 1953 novel of the same name. Since this version does end differently from both the novel and the 2006 version of the film (and the 1967 film is 'Casino Royale' is an even further deviation from the original story), losing the end would be a real tragedy for anyone examining how different cultures and times viewed Ian Fleming's iconic character. Without this lower quality footage, the ending would not exist. One has to remember that this was once considered lost and footage was pieced together from two sources. The only complaint from a viewers perspective is that there is a notable drop in video quality shortly before the end. Overall, the story is truer to the novel and seeing Barry Nelson's American 'Jimmy' Bond is fascinating.

There are some major liberties taken in this version of Casino Royale (most notably combining Vesper and Mathis into 'Valerie Mathis,' changing the torture scene, and switching up the nationalities of the characters) but very few of the changes can't be justified based on the format.
