Sean Connery, the first actor to portray James Bond and later one of the biggest and wealthiest stars in the history of film, has died at age 90. Eon Productions, the film studio behind the James Bond films, confirmed the death in a statement on its website. "We are devastated by the news of the passing of Sean Connery," read the statement from producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli. "He was and shall always be remembered as the original James Bond whose indelible entrance into cinema history began when he announced those unforgettable words — 'The name's Bond... James Bond' — he revolutionised the world with his gritty and witty portrayal of the sexy and charismatic secret agent. He is undoubtedly largely responsible for the success of the film series and we shall be forever grateful to him."

90 years old, wow, that in itself is quite an accomplishment.
My favorite James Bond movie is still You Only Live Twice. My mother allowed me to go to a movie theater with my 17-y old cousin to see it. I was hooked on Bond movies from then on, lol.
