I was seen as an outsider in the beginning and then an object of great envy. All the national directors wanted to be international. They would come up to me and say, If I cast Michael Caine and Sean Connery, do you think this will make it?" There was this...

I did Highlander II: The Quickening (1991), with Sean Connery and Christopher Lambert down in Buenos Aires, and I stunk. I was infatuated with Orson Welles` filmography at the time, so I wanted to see if I could make my voice as low as his, and I succeede...

I felt as free as a bird - describing driving down Sunset Boulevard and seeing a billboard that had Sean Connery, Roger Moore, and Pierce Brosnan on it, but no Timothy Dalton.
Timothy Dalton
I live in a town where if you`re a woman over 40, you`re really passé. In the movies a Sean Connery can get Catherine Zeta-Jones as a love interest. But Shirley MacLaine can`t have Billy Crudup as a boyfriend.

I kind of feel that if you look at the track record of most Bonds - I mean Sean Connery obviously defined the part, and even he struggled for a while to get rid of the mantle. That`s the pitfall and it could happen to me. I`ve been working so hard, for ho...
Daniel Craig
That ain`t fair, really. Michelle Pfeiffer hasn`t been finding a lot of work recently because she doesn`t like what a woman her age is offered. That`s a real double standard. You get Sean Connery, who gets older and older, still playing opposite young lad...

My personality is entirely different than his. I can`t play the cold-blooded killer that Sean can do so well, which is why I play it for laughs. - Comparing his portrayal of James Bond with Sean Connery`s
Roger Moore
On working with Sean Connery, her leading man from Marnie (1964): He was just fabulous, a consummate actor with a great sense of humor. He was practicing his golf swing all the time - a rather profound golfer. We honored him on June 8, 2006 at the America...

I asked Sean Connery how to avoid being typecast and he said, "First you have to be good enough that they ask you to play it again and again."
Christopher Reeve
Schwarzenegger is my role model since he is successful but, as an actor, he is not [my role model]. I prefer Sean Connery, Mel Gibson and Harrison Ford. They too started as `beef cakes` but have since established themselves as acknowledged actors.
Dolph Lundgren
Sean Connery had said he wanted more money and left and Cubby Broccoli (Albert R. Broccoli) came to visit me and said, "We want you to play James Bond". And I said, in my infinite wisdom, "An American can`t play James Bond. It just can`t be done". Now, in...
Burt Reynolds
[Comparing his interpretation of "James Bond" to Sean Connery`s] Sean`s jokes come from left field and I let people know a joke was coming. I basically said "I`m have a good time doing this, and I hope you`re having a good time watching me have a good tim...
Roger Moore
Sean Connery set and defined the character. He did something extraordinary with that role. He was bad, sexy, animalistic and stylish, and it is because of him I am here today. I wanted Sean Connery`s approval and he sent me messages of support, which mean...

It`s very easy to confuse Sean Connery with James Bond. Sometimes in the entertainment industry, people believe the cake is more real than the baker.
Judd Nelson
I am thrilled to be featured alongside Sean Connery in the game version of one of my favorite Bond films. It`s not every day you get to become a Bond Girl so this is a great honour.
Natasha Bedingfield
I am honored to be a Bond girl and be a part of the Bond legacy, To star in a video game with Connery, the original Bond, is incredible.
