Sean Connery

Sean Connery is the first actor that played the role of the iconic James Bond in the 1960s. Aside from playing the legendary role, the famous star also made a lot of movies, played many characters, and received truck-loads of accolades under his belt.

He has got awards from the Oscars, BAFTA Academy Fellowship Award, Golden Globe awards, Cecil B. De Mille Award, and a Henrietta Award. On top of that, he’s considered a legend in his own league. Because of his influence, Sunday Herald named him as The Greatest Living Scot at that time and EuroMillions’ ‘Scotland Greatest Living National Treasure.’ He was also People Magazine’s ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ in 1989 and ‘Sexiest Man of the Century’ in 1999. Connery retired from making films and even shut down the rumors about doing another Indiana Jones or James Bond film. However, the industry mourned when they found out that the famous star passed away in the last quarter of 2020.
