43-year-old actor, Daniel Craig will be gracing the cover of Esquire’s August 2011 cover. The man formally known as “James Bond” to many, has quite the busy summer ahead of him with the highly anticipated release of Cowboys & Aliens, alongside Harrison Ford and Olivia Wilde which hits the big screen on July 29th.

While the trailer has been seen both on television and in the theaters, his other project is kind of a mystery—referring to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, based on the novel by Stieg Larsson. The trailer which features no dialogue, just graphic scenes and sinister music, is also gaining a lot of attention due to the wide spread popularity of millions of beloved readers.

Craig, who also recently married actress, Rachel Weisz in secret, had many positive things to say about the Larsson film in the August issue of Esquire.

“It’s as adult as you can possibly make it. This is adult drama. I grew up, as we f—ing all did, watching The Godfather and that, movies that were made for adults. And this is a $100 million R-rated movie. Nobody makes those anymore.”

Both of these films, different is so many ways, will be equally thrilling due to the incredible acting chops of Craig and his lovely British accent.

Cowboys & Aliens will be having a special premiere at this year’s Comic-Con in San Diego on July 23rd at 8:00 PM with director, Jon Favreau, Craig, Harrison and Wilde all in attendance.
