The Best James Bond Actors of All Times
by Mediacom Cable Internet Service Providers & TelecommunicationsThe James Bond
movie franchise has been coming out since the early 1960s. Sean Connery was the
first actor to play the role in the movie Dr. No. Every actor who played the
role of Agent 007 has brought a lot to the character and the movie. One of the
points where the creator of James Bond has always focused, is that whether they
should adopt the version of the character shown in the novel or should they add
something new to the character or the movie itself.
All the Bond Movies
revolve around technology, gadgets, the latest fashion and more. The character
of James Bond itself appears to be quite charming with a lot of glamour. Also,
he tends to have that charisma that sets new trends for both the fashion and
movie industry at the same time. You can check out many of these movies using
services by Mediacom
cable and enjoy all the action and glamour on HD quality
picture and sound. Let’s have a look at the movie stars that have played Agent
007 over the years:
Pierce Brosnan
Movies Appeared In: GoldenEye,
Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Enough and Die Another Day
Standout Film: GoldenEye.
Pierce Brosnan
might be one of the best Bond characters of the 90s but his portrayal as the
man with the license to kill was a little too slick. The movie itself had a
weaker script and focused more on product placement and special effects. As an
individual, Pierce Brosnan’s depiction as Agent 007 might not be up to the mark
and his addition to the James Bond franchise seemed a little irrelevant.
George Lazenby
Movies Appeared In: On Her
Majesty's Secret Service
Standout Film: On Her Majesty's
Secret Service
One of the
fascinating facts about George is that he is an Australian actor and the
youngest actor who played the character of James Bond at the age of 29. He
played the role of James Bond in the 1960s On Her Majesty’s Secret Service even
when he was a model and a commercial actor before he signed up for the role.
Well, he ended up quitting soon after his first shot.
Timothy Dalton
Movies Appeared In: License To
Kill and The Living Daylights
Standout Film: The Living
Daylights
Dalton played James
Bond in two bond films but had to quit in the 80s after some legal issues that
he had to face for a few years. Timothy’s task was to align the character of
James Bond that was originally set by
Ian Fleming. This required James Bond to possess a more serious character.
Also, they had to make sure that the movie or the character’s fans do not feel
alienated as they have spent more than a decade watching Roger Moore inhibiting
the part.
Sean Connery
Movies Appeared In: Dr. No, You
Only Live Twice, From Russia With Love, Thunderball, Diamonds Are Forever,
Goldenfinger and Never Say Never Again
Standout Film(s): Goldfinger and
Thunderball
Sean Connery
created the mold for the James Bond character and for many fans, Connery’s
depiction of James Bond was one of the most perfect representations of 007. He
was charming, confident and when he had to deliver a quick one-liner, he was
unmatchable. It’s this aspect of the character that makes Sean Connery’s
version of James Bond more admirable.
Daniel Craig
Movies Appeared In: Skyfall,
Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace, No Time to Die, Spectre
Standout Film: Casino Royale
Daniel Craig did
justice to a vast extent with the James Bond character that Ian Fleming and
different authors who came after him, had initially put together. He represents
the same gritty and hard-nosed spy. His appearance in Casino Royale revived the
entire franchise. For now, the character is in good hands and hopes are high
that whoever will take over the mantle of James Bond is going to do justice
with the character.
Roger Moore
Movies Appeared In: Moonraker, A
View To A Kill, Live And Let Die, The Man With The Golden Gun, Octopussy, For
Your Eyes Only and The Spy Who Loved Me
Standout Film: Live and Let Die
Sir Roger Moore
portrayed the character of James Bond in some of the greatest hits of all
times. He brought lightness and absurdity to the character of James Bond making
it a perfect fit for the fashion trends followed by people in the 70s. In the
80s he became a little too old and out of shape to play the role of James Bond
but still was able to set incredible standards for the Bond movie franchise.
James Bond is one
of the most followed characters in the movie industry around the world. It has
set new trends in almost every era where people admire the character as a
standard for thrillers and movies from different genres.
