Okay not really because the 'powers that be' were smart enough to incorporate the idea of multiple leading men portraying the action-lover from the get-go rather than typing one male personification...
but the original James Bond who many may not remember from the very beginning of the inception of the character, Barry Nelson, died at the age of 89. He played Bond in the very first rendition of the current Bond hit 'Casino Royale' and had quite a few roles in many movies and television series over the years. Overshadowed in his Bond role by the likes of Moore, and Connery, Nelson still had a wonderful career. He'd planned to write some books on his life in Hollywood before he passed away but hadn't gotten to it. It's too bad too. I bet they would have been good reading.
