The One and Done: A Look at George Lazenby in James Bond
The One and Done: A Look at George Lazenby in James Bond
December 16, 2019
By Ryan Porzl
In August 1967, the James Bond series was at an all time high coming off it's fifth film You Only Live Twice back in June and was the third Bond film in a row to gross more than $100 million. However, all good things must come to an end as it was at this point where the franchise suffered a big blow when original James Bond Sean Connery announced his departure from the role after five years and five films. There were obvious questions about whether the franchise could survive without Connery or if Bond was merely a fad that would begin to fizzle out. With money to be made, the series continued but after several names ranging from actors who played superheroes to future Bond actors, the man assigned to fill Connery's shoes was an Australian model with little acting experience named George Lazenby. Despite the seemingly impossible task, Lazenby made his mark leaving as fast as he came and exiting the role after only one film and mixed reviews. With the 50th Anniversary of his only outing of 007 approaching, let's take a look at George Lazenby: The One and Done James Bond. This article does contain spoilers.
