Pierce Brosnan and Roger Moore have come to the defense of new Bond Daniel Craig.

Some critics believe that blonde-haired Craig is the wrong choice to play the superspy and irate fans have even launched a website in protest of the filmmakers’ selection.

But Brosnan, who starred in Goldeneye and Die Another Day said: “I think Daniel is a very fine actor.

“These are rocky waters and they’re going to get him one way or another, but I think he will have the last laugh at the end of it.”

Meanwhile, Roger Moore, who played Agent 007 in seven James Bond movies is telling critics to give Craig a chance, canada.com reports.

“He’s a helluva good actor,” said the 78-year-old, “so why attack him?”
