The names Bond.. James Bond

James Bond Spy Thrillers:
James Bond '007' character that was employed for Her Majesty's Secret Service was loosely based on the spy character in Britisher Ian Fleming's twelve James Bond novels. Before the movies, Bond made his first appearance on TV, debuting on CBS in 1954, with Barry Nelson as the 007 agent named Jimmy Bond in an adaptation of Fleming's first Bond novel, Casino Royale.

The first in a successful series of suspenseful, special agent 007 James Bond films, begun in the Cold-War 1960s and serving as a metaphor for the threat of Communism, was Dr. No (1962) followed soon after by the definitive Bond film, From Russia With Love (1963), and the polished Goldfinger (1964). The intriguing superhero lead role has been played by six actors so far: 

1. Sean Connery

1. George Lazenby

1.  Roger Moore

1. Timothy Dalton 

1. Pierce Brosnan

1. Daniel Craig
