The 'Knives Out' actor called out the TV show host for his mistake.
Daniel Craig took the opportunity to correct Stephen Colbert on the pronunciation of his name during a recent appearance on The Late Show.During the Monday, December 2 episode, the Knives Out star joked that he had a 'bone to pick' with Colbert, who had repeatedly mispronounced his name in past interviews. Craig revealed in his interview that the host had said his name incorrectly not once –– but six times, pronouncing his last name as 'Cregg' instead of 'Cr-ayg.
He explained that his father had initially intended for their surname to be pronounced with a silent 't,' like the French version 'Col-bear,' but after some family history, it became a choice in their household. 'You can be 'Col-bear' or 'Colbert,' whatever you want,' Colbert recounted, adding that some family members stuck with one version while others preferred the other.
