The striking 007 First Light opening credits have reignited interest in James Bond's remarkable legacy of visual design. From Maurice Binder's gun-barrel opening sequence to Robert McGinnis's action-packed handpainted posters, the movies have a rich tradition of iconic design.
It might seem unlikely that the various Bond actors played much of a role in the design side of the franchise, but an image has resurfaced showing actor Daniel Craig apparently taking a close interest in the poster for his debut as 007 in 2006's Casino Royale, and it's stirred up quite debate about graphic design.
