Connery was the first 'official' actor to play Bond in films. Most consider him the best Bond ever. When Connery was chosen for the role for James Bond a lot of people did not believe that he could be James Bond (including Ian Fleming!) but with the tutelage of director Terence Young, Connery made a credible "gentleman spy" (as the movie posters described him). The original choice for Bond was Ian Fleming's cousin, Christopher Lee who played Scaramanga in The Man With the Golden Gun. Other actors, including David Niven, Patrick Magoohan, James Mason and Stewart Granger, were also considered for the role. Full name: Thomas Sean Connery Appears in: Sean Connery portrayed the James Bond character in seven James Bond films between 1962 and 1983. Never Say Never Again is a non-EON Productions remake of the 1965 EON James Bond film Thunderball and is therefore not considered as am "official" part of the James Bond series.

Is it James Bond 007? Or possibly Professor Henry Jones from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade? Maybe Jim Malone from "The Untouchables" or Captain Marko Ramius from "The Hunt for Red October.

Connery would have mopped up the room with Cary Grant. Grant had that inevitable streak of vulnerability that may have won him points with aggressive women and "everyman", but mano a mano, Connery would have taken him out without a split second's hesitation. Cool, cold, calculating, and wit dryer than a vodka martini. Case closed.
