Bond: 60 years, 25 films and a mythical character!

James Bond, the agent 007, turned 60 on October 5th!

This mythical character is still considered as much since his cinematographic adaptation in 1962. Before becoming one of the most outstanding characters on the screen, this agent was walking around in novels since 1953.

We are talking about 25 films in total (which are available on Amazon Prime!), where actors such as the Scotsman Sean Connery, the Australian George Lazenby, the Englishman Roger Moore, the Welshman Timothy Dalton, the Irishman Pierce Brosnan and the Englishman Daniel Craig have played this fictional role.

The original rules were that Bond had to be played by an actor from the Commonwealth.

It is important to note that Barry Nelson and David Niven have also donned the 007 costume, but they are not part of the EON Productions franchise.

It should be noted that the production is currently looking for the next 007, who will take the place of Daniel Craig, who wore these shoes from 2006 to 2021, becoming one of the greatest to fill them (the shoes).

The next actor, who is still not chosen, will sign an agreement of 12 years, where four films will be released during those years. Names like Idris Elba, Tom Hardy and Regé-Jean Page have been circulated as potential candidates.
