There, Bond foils Le Chiffre's plan to destroy the prototype Skyfleet airliner. Mads Mikkelsen, who played villain Le Chiffre in Casino Royale, shares a curious behind-the-scenes fact about Daniel Craig’s James Bond performance. James Bond's Casino Royale has been adapted to the screen three times - here's an explanation of each version and how they compare to one another. Former intelligence officer Naveed Jamali breaks down Daniel Craig's original James Bond movie and celebrates its accuracy in the spy trade. The James Bond franchise has often jumped between different genres and tones, but three of the movies are actually remakes in disguise.
While Daniel Craig’s 2006 franchise film gets all the glory, Ian Fleming’s first James Bond story, Casino Royale, has also been adapted a few times outside of Eon Production’s series. Considering Casino Royale is the very first James Bond work by Fleming, it makes sense that the agent’s official debut has been adapted more times than any of his other stories into movies. To recoup his clients' money, Le Chiffre organizes a Texas hold 'em tournament at the Casino Royale in Montenegro. MI6 enters Bond—the agency's best poker player—in the tournament, believing a defeat will force Le Chiffre to seek asylum with the British government in exchange for information on his clients. Bond is paired with Vesper Lynd, a British Treasury agent overseeing the $10 million buy-in. They meet their contact, French secret service agent René Mathis, in Montenegro.
