Matthijs van Heijningen of MJZ directed this spot in which an unsuspecting gent is mistaken for James Bond and has to elude the famed secret agent’s bad guy pursuers. Daniel Craig himself portrays the real Bond in this spot which is largely set on a train with the not quite wannabe Bond using all his resourcefulness to escape the villains looking to do him harm. There are some cameos by some classic Bond arch enemies along the way.
Agency is Wieden+Kennedy Amsterdam. VFX/post house is The Mill, London.
The spot is part of a larger “Crack the Case” campaign that is rolling out worldwide on multiple platforms, and the online film will also include a personalized interactive experience.
