Sean Connery, the first actor to portray James Bond and later one of the biggest and wealthiest stars in the history of film, has died at age 90.
Eon Productions, the film studio behind the James Bond films, confirmed the death in a statement on its website.
"We are devastated by the news of the passing of Sean Connery," read the statement from producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli. "He was and shall always be remembered as the original James Bond whose indelible entrance into cinema history began when he announced those unforgettable words — 'The name's Bond... James Bond' — he revolutionised the world with his gritty and witty portrayal of the sexy and charismatic secret agent. He is undoubtedly largely responsible for the success of the film series and we shall be forever grateful to him."

I know he held some shitty opinions about women, but the man was still a huge part of my childhood, and this sucks.

Well I’ll be. That was an anecdote I had heard a long time ago (when I was a kid basically) and I am now learning was false.
Who the hell would make that up
So James Bond then
I actually like that about shaking my martinis
Or he was purposely watering it down so he could be at least a little more sober while he’s working?
who was in a lot of good movies I like
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better

I've honestly never seen more than 5 minutes of any Bond movie he was in though.
90? A good run. Nothing sad about that
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
Really? Damn I hadn't heard about that.
Goldfinger and Thunderball are okay for what they are, as strictly formula Bonds (with more problematic elements)
the other three are bad movies
To be fair, the interview where he pretty much bragged about it was over 30 years ago. Lots of people have changed since the 80s. But it was an extremely bad look even back then.
He's not like
sad about doing it either
What a piece of shit!
Also I guess he was in some old films or whatever.
ahem
