Daniel Craig to be a rea-life James Bond

Royal Marines will honour the 007 star

Sunday, 8 June 2008

Daniel Craig is set to receive an honorary Green Beret from the British Royal Marines.

The actor will have to complete a gruelling endurance test at the military unit's training headquarters.

But with all the stunts he's doing for forthcoming James Bond film Quantum Of Solace, he's in good shape.

‘I’m just doing very, very hard, strenuous rehearsal. I’m loving it,’ he tells the Sunday Express.

Ian Fleming's fictional hero's full title is Commander James Bond - he served in the Royal Navy before joining MI6.

Daniel, 40, was escorted by Marines in a speed boat ride up the River Thames to announce his appointment as 007 in 2005.

He will be the first Bond star to receive the tribute.
