Casino Royale 2006 Cia
Bond needed to be brought back down to earth. Especially after Die Another Day (2002) demonstrated that Double-0 Seven's onscreen adventures were becoming increasingly absurd, so the producers decided to reboot the franchise and cast a new actor as James Bond to rein things in.
In Casino Royale, the CIA agent that offers to fund Bond after he lost the first $10M says 'Once you win the money, CIA is going to get Le Chiffre.' Why does CIA need to wait though? What difference does it make whether or not he lost his money?
Shortly after being appointed as Double-0 Seven and obtaining his licence to kill, MI6 agent, James Bond (Daniel Craig) causes a diplomatic incident, but also thwarts a plot by shady financier, Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen) to increase his clients' funds by destroying a prototype airliner.
Le Chiffre arranges a Texas Hold ‘Em poker game at the Casino Royale in Montenegro to recoup his losses before his clients learn the truth, so Bond's superior, M (Judi Dench) sends Double-0 Seven to compete in the tournament and force Le Chiffre to defect. However, she also sends HM Treasury liaison officer, Vesper Lynd (Eva Green) and MI6 station chief, René Mathis (Giancarlo Giannini) to assist him.
What initially seems like a straightforward mission becomes increasingly complex. Bond must not only protect Le Chiffre from his murderous clients, fend off attacks from the lethal financier, and stay in the poker game - with the help of CIA agent, Felix Leiter (Jeffrey Wright) - but he also starts to fall in love with Vesper.
