Daniel Craig is more than deserving of being called one of the greatest actors ever. It was his appearances as Agent 007 in theJames Bondfranchise that helped elevate his career into the stratosphere. The 56-year-old English actor is best known as an action star, but his upcoming film directed by the iconic Luca Guadagnino features the legend’s venture into uncharted territory.
Queerwhich is all set to release in late November is the movie Craig will be appearing in, acting as what the title suggests, a gay man. So far, the movie has generated a lot of hype amongst his fans on social media, which is a great look for Craig who last appeared as a detective inGlass Onion, a standalone sequel to Ana de Armas’Knives Out.
The first trailer of Daniel Craig’s Queer receives a great response from fans
A24 recently released a trailer for Daniel Craig’s upcoming film which also starsDrew Starkeyas his on-screen love interest. Starkey is best known for acting inOuter Banksalongside Hollywood’s heartthrobMadelyn Cline.
The trailer shows us a glimpse of the storyline, which according toEntertainment Weeklyis about Craig’s character William Lee who lives quite the flamboyant life partying and one-night-stands. Lee eventually crosses paths with Starkey’s Eugene Allerton, a bise*ual former veteran.

At some point, a relationship (a rather steamy one) forms between the two, and they embark on a journey to find a drug called Yage, which Lee believes and hopes will give them telepathic abilities to connect on a different level. Here’s what fans on X have said regarding the trailer:
oh man, love the whole look and feel of this
Looks like a great 1
Waiting 🔥👀
Luca is on fire. Trailer looks fantastic.
Based on the response the trailer has received on social media, theSkyfallactor could find himself in talks for winning an Oscar, possibly helpingLuca Guadagninoachieve what he hoped for when he worked onTimothée Chalamet’sCall Me By Your Name. But it’s still baffling how Craig hasn’t received an Oscar nod for his007films, which would make this his first nomination if it were to happen.
Daniel Craig has all praise for Luca Guadagnino’s Queer
Queerisn’t a story that is based on modern times as it is set in the 1950s time period. The movie is based on William S. Burroughs’ book of the same title, which was published during the 80s. So far,Queerhas premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, New York Film Festival, and the UK’s London’s Royal Festival Hall as well.

While discussing the story recently,Daniel Craigclaimed it features themes of love, loneliness, and yearning. According toBBC, he said,
It is about love, but it’s about loss, it’s about loneliness, it’s about yearning, it’s about all of these things. And I mean, my God, if I was writing myself a part, and trying to tick off things that I wanted to do, this would fulfill all of them.
While fans seem very excited to see the iconic action star take on a whole new look, critics have given the movie mediocre reviews (via BBC). Either way, the trailer shows thatQueeris much more than just another ordinary movie based on infatuation between two leads and that it also might bring out an emotional feel as well.
Queerwill be released on August 10, 2025.
