LONDON, England -- One of the worst kept secrets in the entertainment industry is no longer a secret.
Daniel Craig, a blue-eyed and blond British actor, is the new James Bond.
Sony Pictures on Friday confirmed media reports that Craig will replace Pierce Brosnan as the suave British spy of the silver screen. (Watch video of new 007)
Craig's selection -- revealed by having the actor travel down the River Thames aboard a military boat, wearing Bond's trademark suit and dark glasses -- ends months of speculation over the role of agent 007.
Later, at a news conference in London, Craig appeared to be at a loss for words about his new job.
"It's something else, I can tell you, really," he said.
Craig added that his first reaction when told by producers was to say, "I need a drink."
