James Bond. Benoit Blanc. Joe Bang. These iconic characters have become synonymous with Daniel Craig's career. Now, Craig adds William Lee, a drug-addicted gay American expat, to that list in Luca Guadagnino's sexually charged and fantastical love story,

The actor who redefined James Bond goes for broke in Luca Guadagnino's beautiful, extraordinary take on William Burrough's semi-autobiographical novel.

Daniel Craig, better known for playing James Bond, stars opposite Drew Starkey in Luca Guadagnino’s “Queer,” an adaptation of a William S. Burroughs novella.

Daniel Craig has already commented on his sex scenes with “Queer” co-star Drew Starkey, claiming they “tried to make it fun.” Craig opened up about keeping it as “touching and real and natural” as possible while filming the steamy scenes with Starkey for Luca Guadagnino’s latest movie.

At the Venice Film Festival, the star said he embraced the scenes with sexual encounters: ‘If I wasn’t in the movie and saw this movie, I’d want to be in it.’

"It was fun to make a cut to the window," Guadagnino told IndieWire at the TIFF premiere of his latest film written by Justin Kuritzkes. Luca Guadagnino’s “ Queer ” made its North American premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on Monday,

Heady, consuming, obsessive love is Luca Guadagnino’s specialty, and he plumbs it once more with Queer, an adaptation of William S. Burroughs’ 1985 novel about an American junkie in 1940s Mexico City who falls hard for a younger stranger.
