Don’t ruin the hair! Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz try to dodge the rain at Cliveden Literary Festival as Bond star continues to rock shaggy blond locks

Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz looked very loved up as they dodged the rain on Sunday.

The pair were attending Cliveden Literary Festival and cut casual figures as they held hands.

The James Bond star, 56, was every inch the supportive husband as he made his way to the event where Rachel joined former BBC journalist Emily Maitlis for an interview. 

Daniel continued to sport the shaggy blond locks he has been rocking of late, while accessorising with oversized sunglasses. 

He has taken fans by surprise in recent months with his new ‘do which appears to be for his upcoming film Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, which began shooting in June.

Rachel and Daniel’s appearance at the literary festival held at Clivedon house in London was worlds away from their glamorous appearance at the 81st Venice Film Festival earlier this month. 

The couple, who have been married since 2011 and share three children looked sensational as they walked the red carpet for the premiere of Daniel’s latest film Queer

Based on William Burroughs’ semiautobiographical novella about obsessive lust, it stars Craig as American expat and war veteran William Lee, who has a romance with a younger man, Eugene Allerton (Drew Starkey), a drug addict and discharged Navy serviceman.

Daniel has been tipped for an Oscar nomination for the film.

He recently spoke about the frank gay love scenes in his new film Queer, telling the Venice Film Festival: ‘We just wanted to make it as touching and as real and as natural as we could.’

Delegates at the film festival professed surprise at the time at the sex scenes which are like nothing hitherto seen in a mainstream film.

Speaking on Tuesday he said: ‘Drew (Starkey) is a wonderful fantastic beautiful actor to work with and we had a laugh, we tried to make it fun.

‘There was some choreography in the movie which was a very important part of the movie. Drew and I started months before filming rehearsing the dancing. Dancing with someone is a great icebreaker.

‘You know as well as I do there is nothing intimate about filming a sex scene on a movie set, but we just wanted to make it as touching and as real and as natural as we could.’

Director Luca Guadagnino, behind the recent hit Challengers starring Zendaya, said: ‘Daniel in our first Zoom was adamant that this was going to be a love story first and foremost. We stuck with that – what does it mean to love and to be loved, to be connected and to be disconnected.’

Asked if James Bond – the spy played five times by his leading man – could be gay, Guadagnino replied: ‘Let’s all be grown up about this. There is no way around the fact that nobody would know James Bond’s desires.

‘Having said that – no! The important thing is that he does his missions properly.’
