“We’ve been expecting you,” the caption read. “The Princess Royal presents Daniel Craig with the Order of St. Michael and St. George - the same honor held by his character James Bond.”

Craig received the recognition for his “outstanding contribution to film and theatre.”

He portrayed secret agent 007 in 2006 with “Casino Royale.” He ended it with “No Time to Die,” which premiered in Philippine cinemas last December.

"No Time To Die," released in October, took a mighty $121 million at the international box office over its opening weekend, racking up $56 million at the US box office.—Franchesca Viernes/LDF, GMA News
