Well, that’s true...None of the stories that Craig played Bond in were written by Ian Fleming anyway...

"Casino Royale" was the first Bond story written by Fleming and the first Craig Bond movie.

None of the movies were 100% in line with the Fleming books. "From Russia with Love", "Goldfinger", and OHMSS were the closest. Others simply borrowed a title and several scenes were lifted from different books altogether. The Faberge egg in "Octopussy" was lifted from "The Property of a Lady" which was in the collection of short stories "Octopussy and the Living Daylights." The scene of being dragged behind the boat in "For Your Eyes Only" was lifted from "Live and Let Die."
