The UK Royal Family has awarded actor Daniel Craig a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George, the same and rare honour held by Ian Fleming’s famous fictional secret agent, James Bond.
“We’ve been expecting you…,” said the Royal Family in a tweet as the Princess Royal presented Daniel Craig with The Order of St Michael and St George – the same honour held by his character James Bond – in recognition of his outstanding contribution to film and theatre.
The honour was bestowed at Windsor Castle.
Princess Anne, wearing naval uniform, put the order on its ribbon around his neck during an investiture ceremony, celebrating Craig’s outstanding contribution to film and theatre.
Craig, 54, has starred in the last five Bond films, first appearing as “007 in Casino Royale” in 2006 and ending his run with “No Time To Die” in 2021.
Around the same time as the movie release, Craig was named an honorary officer of the United Kingdom’s Royal Navy.
