	About David Decio and 007 Die Another Day

Welcome to DavidDecio.com
David Decio was born in north London, England. His acting career began in the 2000 film ‘Shiner’ (starring Sir Michael Caine). After a successful start to the new millennium David spent most of 2001 as a 1st Assistant Director on a short Independent film ‘The Cavendish Profile’ (featuring Julian Glover), he also had parts in the comedy ‘Los Dos Bros’ as Hans the German and was in ‘A Lump In My Throat’, a Docudrama about the life of John Diamond.

In 2002 David was chosen to be "Mr Kil’s Personal Assistant & Jinx’s Personal Driver" in the Bond film ‘Die Another Day’. This was Bond’s 20th adventure and celebrated 40 years of unparalleled cinematic success.
David was fortunate enough to spend most of his time in a new 007 Ford Thunderbird chatting with Halle Berry (NSA agent Jinx Johnson). He was even luckier to work with a fantastic man and actor Lawrence Makoare (Mr Kil) who always kept everyones’ spirits up on set and he even had some great stories to tell about the making of ‘The Lord Of The Rings’ in which he starred. David also got to work with his favourite James Bond actor ‘Pierce Brosnan’.

		Scene from Die Another Day: Mr Kil takes Bonds Samsonite Xylem Case from his Personal Assistant (David Decio) and then gives orders to him as James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) enters the Ice Palace for the first time.

David got to spend a lot of time with Halle Berry as her Personal Driver in the film. The scene was being filmed during a very hot April but luckily enough Halle and David could hide in their fully loaded air conditioned 007 Ford Thunderbird. Halle was cooler as she was wearing a 007 stylish summer Bond girl outfit which was designed by Lindy Hemming (a fabulous movie costume designer). Unfortunately David was fully fitted with professional winter snow gear.

The sun glasses David is wearing were his own and he still owns them today! ‘‘It was so bright on set with the all white Ice Palace and snow, I had to wear the glasses to see what I was doing otherwise I would have looked like Mr. Magoo squinting all the time’’

David would like to thank all the people he has worked with. For him everyone involved in the making of a film is important whether they be involved with lighting, directing, make-up, management or fellow actors you work with in the studio, they all make it an incredible experience. Everybody has to give a big part of themselves to the film to make it possible.
