Casino Royale includes a cameo by British entrepreneur Richard Branson (seen being TSA-screened at Miami International Airport). The cameo was cut out of the in-flight versions shown on British Airways ' in-flight entertainment systems, and the Virgin Atlantic aircraft Branson supplied had its tail fin (bearing the company logo) obscured.

Ok, we admit, it's a headline and eyeball grabber, but hey, we're just following the lead by arguably the world's greatest publicity stunt guru, and celebrated business tycoon, Mr.. um, Sir Richard.
Sir Richard Branson has been publicly spotted at casinos a few times over the years. Most recently at The Palms in Vegas, where a stunt didn't go quite as planned, scraping the casino with his pants and hands, and fortunately escaping with his life, thus cheating death, something he's accustomed to with his planes, trains, automobiles and hot air balloons... oh, and now space ships.
Earlier this year Mr Branson was spotted with Australian media tycoon, James Packer, at the Melbourne Grand Prix, but Branson didn't try his luck at Crown, although Mr Tom Cruise (from Top Gun and Mission: Impossible fame) and family did a few months later. Branson also scored (or should that be campaigned) a cameo in Casino Royale a few years ago, if you want to include that 'buy in', or gift in kind.
- Multi-award-winning Richard has been knighted by Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace and starred in blockbusters Casino Royale, Around the World in 80 Days and Superman Returns, along with small-screen series The Simpsons, Friends and Baywatch.
- Richard is in Casino Royale, the first James Bond film to feature Daniel Craig as the international super-spy. Richard has previously spoken of his love of James Bond films, stating that if he could be a superhero then he would choose to be the spy previously played by the likes of Roger Moore and Sean Connery.

A lifelong Bond fan, Branson asked director Martin Campbell if his generosity would warrant a part in Casino Royale - reports Cinemablend.
By the way, readers, unfortunately Australian players can't play online casino at Virgin Casino, due to technical reasons we will leave for the legal eagles, however punters can plan in person at Mr Packer's Crown Casino, TAB's Star City Casino, or online via our friends at PartyCasino.com or Captain Cooks Casino, and if poker is your poison and your based down under in Australia, try PartyPoker.com,Noble Poker or Titan Poker, and you might even qualify to play at the Poker Cup at Crown Casino next month!
Aussie tongues are also wagging about the Aussie Millions coming up at Crown this January, and PartyGaming is setting the agenda on a global scale with their recent purchase of the World Poker Tour, for a cool 13 million or thereabouts.
Our friends in the national and international news media community provided more than adequate media coverage of the World Poker Tour deal, and they have been more than fair to Branson and his Virgin Group of Companies over the years also.
So, if online casino is your poison and your ISP or firewall will let you into VirginCasino go for it, and if not, try the Global Gaming Directory, World Casino Directory, World Gaming Directory or Multi Currency Casino, you might bypass Virgin, and end up at PartyCasino.com Mr Branson should forgive you if you have no other choice, and he might like to write to Australia's ACMA in the meantime to see if it's the Aussie great firewall playing games, or something else.
In any event, work hard and party hard, be it a Virgin, Party Casino animal, or World Poker Tour high flyer. Australia's Team Goanna and Gumleaf Mafia would be proud of the business and casino entrepreneurs efforts, and Mr Packer, CAP, Gambling911, GPWA, Poker News Daily and EGR, keep the bastards honest.
Branson, Packer, Ryan, Ayre, Garber, Weizer, Trump, Adelson, Wynn, Murdoch, Costigan... your're throw of the dice. Cheers me maties.

I watched Casino Royale again last night, because Quantum of Solace comes out this weekend and I wanted to make sure that I don’t miss any buried Easter Eggs for the Superfans. Anyway, that movie is great! Well, let’s be honest, parkour is great. But Casino Royale totally rides parkour’s extreme coattails to greatness. Or does it scale parkour’s coattails without any safety equipment? ANYWAY, do you remember the scene where James Bond has to stop a terrorist from blowing up a brand new jumbo jet, and they have an extreme fight inside of a speeding fuel truck on the tarmac? Nuts! Be careful, James Bond! But right before that excitement, when James Bond and the villain were casually passing through airport security as if they weren’t about to go NUTS to the MAX, I noticed that one of the other passengers made a really big deal of turning and looking directly at the camera. And then I realized that he looked familiar, like an old billionaire I used to know. About. Know about. Is that Richard Branson?
Haha, yes it is! It’s funny because he owns his own tropical island.
Supposedly the guy with the guitar is his son. I did some research online and apparently he did a favor for the production by sending a Virgin Airways jet to Prague for some reason, and in return he asked if he could just do a small cameo. Man, they weren’t kidding! That is a very small cameo. These James Bond dudes don’t fuck around. Just give them the jet, please. Here, have a day old bagel from craft services. No, YOU are welcome. But my favorite part of that story is this:
Bond Casino Royale Richard Branson
Virgin supremo Richard Branson is “somehow missing” from the version of Casino Royale shown on British Airways flights, the Telegraph reports.
In the full-fat film, a short cameo shows the multi-trillionaire “passing through a security arch at Miami airport”. This proved too much for BA’s in-flight entertainment team, which “vets films on grounds of taste and suitability before allowing them to be shown”, and Branson duly hit the cutting room floor.
A BA spokesman confirmed that changes had been made to the film, and rather marvellously explained: “All films are screened…we want to ensure they contain no material that might upset our customers.”
British Airways cut out his boring cameo? Best. They didn’t want to upset their customers is all. It’s all about the customers. One minute you get lazy in editing out competing airline entrepreneurs from your in-flight films, the next minute your customers are like fuck this…
Anyway, everyone is curious (Everyone! So curious!) whether or not Sir Richard Branson will have another stiff-looking silent cameo in the new movie. Just look for someone who clearly has his blocking marked out on the floor in day-glo tape and who looks straight into the camera as he does something weird.
