British actor Sean Connery, famous for the role of James Bond, the protagonist of the 007 series known as ‘a classic in spy movies’, died on the 31st of last month (local time) at the age of 90. In the middle, the other actors who have played the role of Bond in the 007 series are also drawing attention.

Roger Moore, who starred more than Sean Connery

According to the BBC on day 1, Connery’s son Jason said: “My father was ill for a while and went to sleep peacefully in the Bahamas.” It is known that the grieving family will hold a commemorative event as soon as the novel coronavirus (Corona 19) infection situation subsides after taking care of the head of the family.

Born in England in August 1930, the deceased assumed leadership in six 007 series, beginning with the first 007 series film, ‘007 Murder Number’ in 1962 at the age of 32. In addition to receiving the American Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor (1988), he also won the Golden Gloves Award three times. In 2000, 20 years ago, he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II, the head of state of England.

The deceased’s masterpiece is probably the 007 series. Starting with the first ‘007 Murder Number’ (1962), the second ‘007 Crisis Break’ (1963), the third ‘007 Goldfinger’ (1964), the fourth ‘007 Operation Thunderball ‘(1965), the fifth’ 007 Lives Twice ‘(1967), took the lead role, took a break for 6 episodes and then withdrew forever from the 007 series after appearing in 7 episodes’ 007 Diamonds Forever’ (1971).

The sixth series of 007 ‘007 and the queen’ (1969) was played by Australian actor George Razenby (81) instead of Connery in the role of Bond. After Connery’s retirement, the role of Bond in the 007 series became famous for a time, played by a British actor named Roger Moore (1927-2017).

◆ 25 episodes starring Daniel Craig to be released next year

Starting with series 007, 8 episodes ‘007 Die or Live’ (1973), 9 pieces, ‘007 The man with the golden gun’ (1974), 10 pieces, ‘007 The spy who loved me’ (1977), 11 pieces, ‘007 Moonlake’ (1977), 12 episodes ‘007 Your Ice Only’ (1981), 13 episodes ‘007 Octopus’ (1983) and 14 episodes ‘007 View Tour Kill’ (1985). He has appeared in more 007 series than Connery, and even today, Moore’s lead role in the seventh episode of the 007 series remains an unbreakable record.

The main character of the series 007 15 ‘007 Living Daylight’ (1987) was for the actor Timothy Dalt. Dalton left the 007 series after taking responsibility for two episodes of episode 16, ‘Murder License’ (1989).

The next seat was for Irish actor Pierce Brosnan, 67, who is still in our memory. Brosnan is a total of 4007 series including 17 pieces ‘007 Golden Eye’ (1995), 18 pieces ‘007 Never Die’ (1997), 19 pieces ‘007 Unlimited’ (1999) and 20 pieces ‘007 Another Day’ (2002 ). He played the role of Bond in the movie.

British actor Daniel Craig (52), who comes to mind when I think of 007 today, first took on the role of Bond through the twenty-first series ‘007 Casino Royale’ (2006). After that, he went through 22 episodes ‘007 Quantum of Solus’ (2008), 23 episodes ‘007 Skyfall’ (2012) and 24 episodes ‘007 Specter’ (2015) to establish himself as the ‘James Bond of this era’.

The series 007 25 ‘007 No Time to Die’, starring Craig, will also be released in April next year. This film is known to be Craig’s last film to play the role of James Bond. It was originally planned to be released worldwide this year, but the release time is said to have been delayed amid the Corona 19 pandemic (a global pandemic).
