Only the best actors are chosen for the lead role in Bond, and almost every actress is dreaming of playing the girl of a secret agent. Few people know that initially the works of Ian Fleming refused to fund absolutely all Hollywood studios. But after a while, the films about 007 became real masterpieces.
In 2014, 7 actors played the role of the main agent, although many believe that 6. But the first attempt at adaptation was in the 1954 series "Climax", one of the episodes of which was filmed based on "Casino Royale".
Sean Connery became the only actor to receive an Oscar for his role as Agent 007. He played in 7 parts of Bond. These roles became for him a ticket to a big movie, and Elizabeth II bestowed a knighthood on Connery.
George Lazenby got the role in just one film, despite the fact that he even performed all the stunts himself. Due to his eccentric nature, he could not get along with the entire film crew.
Roger Moore played James Bond for 12 years, adding new character traits such as good nature and humor. Films with his participation have acquired their own unique flavor.
Timothy Dalton is rightfully considered the most charming spy. He played only in two films, but this is how Fleming himself saw Bond.
Films with the participation of Irishman Pierce Brosnan, and there were 4 of them, brought the most record profits. Pierce would have filmed further, but, unfortunately, the producers considered his age (50 years old) not quite suitable for a sequel.
Daniel Craig is the first and only blond Bond, and the highest paid of them all. So far, he has starred in only three films, but experts predict five more for him until 2022.
