This 1950s Movie Star Would’ve Completely Changed How You Think Of James Bond

When the creators of the James Bond franchise of books and films were considering who should be the first person to play the role of famous British spy in the 1950s, the first choice would have completely changed the character. When director Albert Broccoli and the producers of the first Bond movie considered the archetype of 007, it was far from many of the actors that appeared on-screen during the 1960s through the 1990s. Only after initial conversations fell through did the focus of the character change.
