Sean Connery was the first James Bond, playing the role in six movies from 1962 to 1971. Although Fleming reportedly disliked Connery at first, he was eventually won over, even working a Scottish father into the literary Bonds ancestry to reflect Connerys own background. Connerys Bond was closer to the version depicted in Flemings novels, though he did inject more humor into the character.
George Lazenby took over the role for one film, On Her Majestys Secret Service, in 1969. Having had no prior acting experience, Lazenbys performance is largely derided by most Bond fans. In fact, his acting career virtually ended after that film, and Connery took the role back for one more official Bond film in 1971.
From 1973 to 1985, Roger Moore left an indelible mark on the Bond character. Moores Bond is generally kinder and more genial than Connerys, and this era gave birth to some of the more outlandish exploits, involving space stations, super lasers and other science fiction elements.
Timothy Daltons two-film run in the late 1980s was seen by many as a return to the characters roots. The Dalton films are darker and more cynical. However, lawsuits tied up the Bond franchise for several years, and when they resumed in 1995, it was time for a new Bond.
Pierce Brosnan played Bond four times from 1995 to 2002. For younger fans of the series, he is the only Bond. His wry smile and dry wit are reminiscent of Roger Moores portrayal of Bond, but Brosnan also guided the character forward.
