Oh yes, I’d fight a lot of people to get these auditions tapes in my possession, lol!
I've got your back, let's roll! ;)
I can already taste the blood of the men who will stand in my way!!!
It's surreal reading the interviewer talk about Daniel's childhood and where he grew up (Hoylake) because that is literally 5 minutes from me, the cinema he saw Blade Runner as a kid has been knocked down now, my girlfriend lives on the road. where it used to be. The Ring O Bells pub was a great pub as well, I remember going there as a kid and playing on the play area, they had a huge tyre swing that went from one end to the other. Crazy to think Daniel's parents were the landlords at one time
Yes. There will be a documentary called Being James Bond, looking back at Craig's time as Bond, which will include his screen test and other previously unreleased material.
And indeed, @talos7, Craig's screentest is a Holy Grail for me too, and the same goes for the other Bonds, or the ones that almost happened. (Brosnan's 1986 screen test, anyone?)
I do have a small wish list of unreleased material I'd like to see on that documentary:
This does exist for SF.
This as well press conference of casino Royale
Vesper and bond in Montenegro
It could also be that it mirrored Bond's "lookout" and subsequent footchase in Madigascar.
I agree with @MakeshiftPython and like you said a little too similar to the Madagascar chase, interesting to see nonetheless though.
While I can’t see him as either one, I do think he would make a great Mr. Freeze, Doctor Octopus, and in particular, Brainiac.
Release all screen tests, including those of actors who were rejected, and I'm happy to have NTTD delayed to November 2021. :D
Setting aside the beauty of the message and the seriousness of the times...
DC is #3, right behind Sir Elton and Sir Paul. That's a big deal.
He's rocking the buzz cut. Nothing left to do these days, since we can't get haircuts. I'm almost at that point myself: I have my own set of clippers.

DC and Jeffrey Wright are featured in the #BrooklynForLive campaign.
In fact, Jeffrey Wright launched the campaign himself. Here he is talking about the project:
Cool...it looks as though in his everyday life, Craig is keeping that mean-looking SF haircut. Never understood the hate for that haircut. It looked aggressive, tough and militaristic. It suits Craig's harsher portrayal.
Actually, it seems to me that DC has gone to the clippers while social distancing. I did the same to myself this week.
I think you're right. Looks like Rachel Weisz is responsible for this one....
But arguably, he was already experimenting with the 'self-isolation' haircut with SF. I remember the rampant discussion concerning Craig's hair in 2012. He went with a serious crew cut. I'm a fan. I think it looks mean and brutal...it suited his Bond. I think it's his 2nd or 3rd best hair (after SP or NTTD). I currently omit NTTD from my hair rankings:
The Skyfall haircut always gets a lot of flack. Certainly it's not his best haircut, but it suits the narrative of the film.

My Holy Grail of Bond history...
The event has been postponed due to the current situation in the US:
