Sean Connery: James Bond actor dies aged 90

Sir Sean Connery has died at the age of 90.
The Scottish actor was best known for his portrayal of James Bond, being the first to bring the role to the big screen and appearing in seven of the spy thrillers.

His acting career spanned decades and his many awards included an Oscar, two Bafta awards and three Golden Globes.
Sir Sean's other films included The Hunt for Red October, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and The Rock.

He was largely regarded as being the best actor to have played 007 in the long-running franchise, often being named as such in polls. His Oscar came in 1988, when he was named best supporting actor for his role as an Irish cop in The Untouchables.

He was knighted by the Queen at Holyrood Palace in 2000.

In August, he celebrated his 90th birthday.
 
Well, that sucks. Guy was the best James Bond. He couldn’t save Zardoz though. :cry:

Well fuck! I always liked his roles. Bond of course, but also many of the roles when I was growing up....Hunt for Red October (I was ready to believe a Russian sub commander could have a half Russian-half Scottish accent), the Untouchables (I feel like the Oscar was more lifetime achievement, but he owned most scenes he was in) and Last Crusade (my favorite Indy movie).

I want to bemoan it...but 90 is a healthy long life.
RIP Sir Sean

If you say it like this it reminds me of his James Bond days. Don't forget his role in "The Man Who Would Be King". That was an awesome movie.

I feel the same way. He was considered the sexiest man alive til he was about 70. He lived to be 90 on his own island in the Bahamas. How much more can you really ask for?
