Daniel CraigandJames Cordenwent through a cinematic whirlwind onThe Late Late Showon Thursday night!
The 007 star, 53, and late-night host, 43, appeared in front of a blue screen on the episode, which welcomed Craig ahead of Friday’s theatrical release of the latestJames BondfilmNo Time to Die.
To urge potential moviegoers to return to actual theaters — “where they’re meant to be seen,” said Corden — the host enlisted Craig to help him recreate 24 iconic blockbusters in just ten minutes.
Corden asked Craig, “Are you sure you’re ready to do this?,” to which the Bond star responded, “No! It’s going to be great, it’s going to be fun. C’mon, Let’s do it.”
Then, after a nod toIndiana Jonesand the Raiders of the Lost Ark, Craig appeared in a silken white robe and blond wig as Fay Wray in a black-and-white rendition ofKing Kong, complete with a giant ape hand appearing behind him.
