Ian Fleming’s British Secret Service agent known as James Bond was introduced to readers in 1953. A decade later, James Bond hit the big screen for the first time when Eon Productions introduced Dr. No with Sean Connery in the leading role. Over the next decade, Connery would play the role of Bond six times between 1962 and 1971, with George Lazenby appearing in the role in the sixth overall film in 1969.
