James Bond Movies

Recently, former 007, Roger Moore, revealed that he is eager to make a comeback to the James Bond franchise, not as Bond, but as a villain.

Moore, who portrayed the secret agent in seven James Bond films between 1973 and 1985, has hardly been offered a chance to play a villain onscreen during his long film career and therefore, craves the opportunity to play a baddie.

With the new Bond movie scheduled to begin shooting in the next few months in Panama, the aging actor has revealed that he would love to portray the role of a bad guy in the film.

"I'd like to play a villain," Moore says, "They get the best lines."

Moore took over the reins of 007 from Sean Connery in 1973s "Live and Let Die."

The actor appeared in the next 6 James Bond movies, including "The Man with the Golden Gun" (1974), "The Spy Who Loved Me" (1977), "Moonraker" (1979), "For Your Eyes Only" (1981), "Octopussy" (1983), and "A View to a Kill" (1985).

Ultimately, at least some of what James Bond became was a consequence of Moore.
