James Bond's Body / Esquire

I wrote - at length - about the evolution of James Bond’s body, from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig, for Esquire. I asked Craig’s PT, his stunt double and a bona fide Bond academic to weigh in on how 007’s MI6-pack reflects the changing shape of action films and male beauty standards. For some reason the editor didn’t go with my suggested title of “Lift and Let Diet”.
