Each of the six James Bond actors has their own style, appeal and
uniqueness in their portrayal of Ian Fleming's famous creation. James
Bond is a legendary super spy known internationally as a figure who has
brought action and entertainment to our cinema screens. Agent 007 is the
essential ingredient in a remarkable film series that has currently
spanned 46 years. Now let's have a look at each 007 actor:<br />
<strong>Sean Connery (1962 - 1971)</strong><br />
The
first of the James Bond actors, Connery was acknowledged for his
excellent portrayal of the Bond character which led to the amazing
success of the 007 series. Responsible for bringing Ian Fleming's
creation to life, Connery was renowned for his charm, poise, and
charisma as the first James Bond.<br />
Sean Connery starred in six
official 007 films with the most successful being the 1965 adventure
Thunderball which made $141 million. Connery later starred in the
unofficial Bond movie Never Say Never Again (1983) which made $160
million.<br />
<strong>George Lazenby (1969)</strong><br />
Although
starring as James Bond in only one movie, Lazenby was an admired 007
actor due to his appeal, physical presence, and self-assurance. On Her
Majesty's Secret Service became one of the most popular films in the
series despite grossing only $82 million.<br />
<strong>Roger Moore (1973 - 1985)</strong><br />
Bringing
unmatched success to the Bond movies during the 1970s and 1980s, Moore
was known for his mannerisms and humour as James Bond. Moore was an
international movie star before becoming Agent 007 and starred in seven
official Bond films.<br />
Roger Moore is the longest serving of the
James Bond actors and was famous for bringing escapist entertainment to
the cinema. Moore redefined the role of Bond and played a key hand in
the success of the series which raked in nearly $1.2 billion during his
time as 007. The 1979 film Moonraker grossed $210 million at the box
office making it the most successful 007 movie with Moore as Bond.<br />
<strong>Timothy Dalton (1987 - 1989)</strong><br />
With
an emphasis on playing a more ruthless and bitter Bond, Dalton became
the new 007 after Roger Moore. Whilst Dalton's Bond was closer to the
literary version created by Ian Fleming, it still contained 007's
typical characteristics including strength, amazing skills and sheer
perseverance. Dalton starred in two Bond movies in the late 1980s with
The Living Daylights (1987) the more successful making $191 million.<br />
<strong>Pierce Brosnan (1995 - 2002)</strong><br />
Following
a six year break from the James Bond movies, Brosnan stepped into the
role of Agent 007. He brought immediate success to the film series and
starred in four Bond films. Brosnan's version of 007 ensured the Bond
character was appropriate after the Cold War and beyond into the 21st
Century. The most successful 007 movie with Pierce Brosnan was Die
Another Day (2002) which made a staggering $432 million.<br />
<strong>Daniel Craig (2006 - 2008)</strong><br />
After
a four year hiatus in the series Daniel Craig became the latest James
Bond actor. He was known for revitalising the character of 007 and is
admired by fans and film critics throughout the world. Craig's version
of Bond was more fierce, emotional, and resolute in his intentions.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The
007 movies with Daniel Craig as Bond (Casino Royale and Quantum of
Solace) are the highest grossing of the series with Casino Royale (2006)
making an astounding $596 million. Craig will carry on as 007 in the
next Bond movie which is due to be released in late 2012.</div>
