ian fleming was a naval intelligence officer who compiled James Bond out of all the spies he was personally acquainted with
I do not think christopher lee was one of them and can't find any documents or statements from Fleming to that effect but even if it's true he'd only be one of about a dozen men who provided the inspiration

Like seriously the fact that he was so handsome for so long lends credence to him being cast in several films as an ageless vampire with entrancing good looks. He was like an actually photogenic Kenneth Parcell, but with more Nazi stabbing.

Christopher Lee, Terry Pratchett, Leonard Nimoy...
While filming a swordfight with a drunken Errol Flynn during the filming of The Dark Avengers in 1955, Flynn accidentally cut Lee’s hand so badly his finger nearly came off, and permanently injured. Later, Lee cut off Flynn’s wig while Flynn was still wearing it. Flynn stormed off set and refused to come out of his trailer until Lee claimed it was an accident.

14) In the ‘50s, Lee was engaged to Henriette von Rosen, daughter of Count Fritz von Rosen. The Count apparently didn’t like Lee, because after hiring private detectives to investigate the actor and demanding references, he also refused to allow his daughter to marry him unless Lee got the blessing of the King of Sweden. Lee got it.

The Man With the Golden Gun is not a very good movie but I'm gonna watch it anyway because Christopher Lee is worth it
