David Niven (1967): David Niven was a British soldier, actor, memoirist, and novelist. He played the role of agent 007 James Bond in Casino Royale.
George Lazenby (1969): George Robert Lazenby is an Australian actor. He was the second actor to play the role of secret agent James Bond in 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' in 1969. Having appeared in only one film, George Lazenby as Bond is the shortest among the actors in the series.
Roger Moore (1973-1985): Sir Roger George Moore KBE was an English actor. Roger Moore played the role more than any other actor, and thus his imprint on 007 is probably stronger than anyone else. He was a great actor and pretty good at being Bond.
