Among the actors who's played Bond in the EON movies, who's died the most times in other movies?
There's been so much talk of 007 dying, so I got curious about the actors' death rate. We'll limit ourselves to movies. Obviously there's a risk of spoilers.




I'll start:

Connery: The Untouchables, The man who would be king

Lazenby: ?

Moore: ?

Dalton: The Rocketeer, Hot Fuzz

Brosnan:

Craig: Road to Peredition, Layer Cake

    Moore dies (sort of) in The Man Who Haunted Himself.

    I think Connery wins this one.

    Did Craig die in Elisabeth? I can't remember, but Catholic agents in Elizabethan England had a high mortality rate.

    Did Brosnan die in Mars Attacks? I remember he lost his head.

    You're right! Let's assume the NHS saved him.

    DC technically dies in tomb raider doesn't he? I'm not sure he does in Layer Cake though? There was talk of him returning to the role in a sequel. Does Red Rackham count in tintin?
    It was either that.....or the priesthood

    I'm pretty sure Ben Whishaw kills Daniel Craig in the last minute of Layer Cake.
  • ChriscoopChriscoop Belize Posts: 10,458MI6 Agent
    Connery dies in First Knight and dragon heart too

    He's still moving on the steps as the camera pans out

    I still think he dies. The voiceover are his final thoughts.

    Did any of Roger Moore's characters die?

    Did Daltons character in Flash Gordon die ??
    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?
  • ChriscoopChriscoop Belize Posts: 10,458MI6 Agent
    I have a feeling they have, but I just don't know which? Ivan hoe perhaps?

    No, Dalton doesn't die in Flash Gordon.
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 22,334MI6 Agent
    Yes, Heathcliff dies at the end (according to Wikipedia)

    Connery wasn't in Dragonheart Too- he died in the first one.

    I still don't think you can include Layer Cake, there is actually a story for the sequel which includes xxxx coming out of retirement to do a job in Jamaica with Monty who by this time has cancer. Craig said even said he would do it if Vaughan directed it, the very fact we have his voice over could be read as him narrating his story and possible death, even Wikipedia states his death as possible (I know Wikipedia is not to be entirety trusted as a source)

    Brosnan‘s characters in „no escape“ and „survivor“ meet their maker...
    The name is Walker by the way.

    There were also projects to make sequels for both Gladiator and Thelma & Louise, so I don't think talk of Layer Cake sequel proves anything.

    Did Roger Moore really never die in a movie? I know he usually played heroes, but he was in 80-90 movies.

    You're not counting The Man Who Haunted Himself, then?
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 22,334MI6 Agent
    Never saw it. Does he die in that movie?
    It was a question, since I have only seen 2-3 of RM's non-Bond movies.
