According to eyewitnesses, Craig<\/a> arrived discreetly at the stadium but quickly immersed himself in the concert atmosphere, joining thousands of fans as the legendary American metal band performed a greatest-hits set under the tour\u2019s signature 360-degree stage production. The Athens date marked the opening European date of Metallica\u2019s 2026 concert leg, with support acts Gojira and Knocked Loose also appearing on the bill.<\/p>\n

Beyond Metallica, Daniel Craig is currently in Greece for the filming of a new international movie production reportedly centered on a prison-break storyline. Local media have followed the actor\u2019s recent appearances in Athens closely. Last month he was seen in Glyfada during an Orthodox Good Friday Epitaph procession alongside his wife, actress Rachel Weisz, and their daughter.<\/p>\n

News of Craig\u2019s attendance at the concert spread after a entrepreneur shared a photo with the actor on social media from inside the packed stadium. In the image, Craig appears relaxed and smiling, dressed in an all-black outfit and sunglasses, with the towering \u201cM72 World Tour\u201d stage setup visible in the background.<\/p>\n

The OAKA concert drew tens of tens of thousands of fans from Greece and abroad, with international visitors traveling to Athens specifically for the show. The \u201cM72 World Tour,\u201d which began in 2023, has already attracted more than four million spectators worldwide and is widely regarded as one of the biggest live rock productions currently touring.<\/p>\n

It is not the first time Craig has traveled to Greece for filming. The actor previously spent time on the Saronic island of Spetses during production of \u201cGlass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery\u201d, the sequel to the successful \u201cKnives Out\u201d franchise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
