Casino Royale (2006) | Ep. 30 - Part 1

How do you reboot the most famous character in cinema when half the audience has already decided your new lead is wrong for the part? John, Westy, and Matt begin the story of how Daniel Craig silenced everyone.

In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Martin Campbell, the cast, and the second act — including the fan backlash before a frame was seen, the stripped-back take on Bond, and that parkour chase announcing a new era.

The cards are still on the table. Part 2 deals the rest: the crew, the Venice finale, the reception, and the legacy. Out now.
