The case for each

Daniel Craig

Five films from Casino Royale (2006) to No Time to Die (2021), the rough, wounded Bond; Skyfall was the first Bond film to gross over a billion dollars.

Sean Connery

The first film Bond, from Dr. No in 1962, and the one who set the template: six official films including Goldfinger and Thunderball.

Pierce Brosnan

GoldenEye (1995) relaunched the series after a six-year gap, and his four films mixed Connery's charm with modern action.

Roger Moore

Seven films from Live and Let Die (1973) to A View to a Kill (1985), the most of any actor in the official series, with a lighter, wittier Bond.

Timothy Dalton

Only two films, The Living Daylights and Licence to Kill, but a darker, harder Bond closer to Ian Fleming's books, years before that became the fashion.
