- David Niven (1967) Although he was Fleming’s preferred actor for the role, David Niven only played Bond in the spoof Casino Royale, the other non-Eon movie, in 1967.
- George Lazenby (1969) The other actor with a solitary appearance as 007 is George Lazenby, who played Bond in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service in 1969 but was replaced by Connery for Diamonds Are Forever.
- Roger Moore (1973-1985) Roger Moore appeared in more of the Eon-produced films than other Bond actor, and was known for being perhaps the most debonair and overtly sophisticated Bond.
