[O.H.M.S.S.]

Not his very first I guess but anyway, I stumbled upon one of Daniel Craig's first acting jobs for the screen on youtube. It's in the New Zorro series in which he is the henchman to the villain.

At 2:36 he even draws his gun, he already knew how to pull that off apparently .



And here he has a sword fight with Zorro at 2:59.

It's pretty funny when he whips out his gun. Not very intimidating at all.

[Mr. Blofeld]

Well, he doesn't have any lines; how can he be intimidating without dialogue?

They just made him look like a little bugger. It's funny.

In the next episode he does have dialogue plus he fights Zorro again .

in that last one he gets (spoiler) .... killed.

[Skudor]

That's all hilarious.

[Aris007]

Ha, ha! He looks hillariously pathetic in these clothes!

[marktmurphy]

I had no idea he went to the States that early.

It's not his first screen appearance, though; he did other stuff before this. Including Boon!

Here he is in Heartbeat: Nick Berry and Daniel Craig together at last!

Wow.

Watching Daniel Craig fold his cloths to Joe Cocker's Don't let Me Be Misunderstood, is strange.... To say the least.

Good find.

For fans of "Tenuous Trivia about Music Used in Daniel Craig Appearances" (the first in a series, no doubt) he bleeds to the same track in LAYER CAKE.

Definitely ironic as that is one of my favourite tunes.

Interesting to see Craig early on in his career. He certainly had the "it' factor.

I guess we all have to start somehwere, even mega stars.

[Mr. Blofeld]

I had no idea he went to the States that early.

Actually, the '90s Zorro series was shot entirely in Madrid, so he wasn't stateside, by then...

Been around the block a bit our Daniel, hasn't he?

A bit, yes.

Yes indeedy, a few stamps on his dance card methinks.

[Tybre]

Huh. According to Wikipedia he was also in Sharpe's Eagle. Just watched that again a few nights ago and I don't remember seeing him at all, and the fact that his character has a name and he isn't just some random gunman makes me think he had at least a couple of lines. I might go re-watch it now just to see if I can't find him (okay, 50% to find him. 50% because I love the Sharpe series, sue me). Craig also had a turn as a German in Young Indy, though I imagine that one's common knowledge. See if I can't find a video of Schiller, though, and will link to Eagle if/when I find him.

[danslittlefinger]

Oh to travel back in time and become Craig's agent.
I'd be milking it now.

[Tybre]

I have no idea how the hell I failed to recognize that was Craig. Wow do I feel stupid.

[dinovelvet]

Here's another good early one, a very angry Craig in The Power of One :

Oh right: that's surprising, but it makes more sense!

He might sack you for getting him a part in Zorro!

[Loomis]

Heartbreaking to watch this early footage and think about what might have been. He could have had a real future in British TV. He might even have made it all the way to EASTENDERS. Soap stardom beckoned, but, sadly, it wasn't to be.

[Mr. Blofeld]

Lucky man; he gets to kiss Sam Mendes' wife!

I watched all the Sharpe DVD a few months back and in one of them, (so I guess it's Sharpe's Eagle,) he has more than a few lines, he even has a fight with Sean Bean. So once again we have 007 fighting 006!

I've got that vhs release of Zorro....and it wasn't until after CR I discovered he was in it. Pleasant surprise I must say, and Daniel is great.
