    Overview

    Sir Sean Connery was a Scottish actor best known for portraying James Bond in six feature films between 1962 and 1971. During his lengthy career, he solidified the success of James Bond, won an Oscar for his role in the Untouchables, and was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.

    Throughout his career, he took on many different roles but decided to keep his signature Scottish accent through each individual role. This made for some terrible performances as well as some great ones. Connery is a proud supporter of the Scottish National Party and his love for Scotland and his battle for its independence delayed his knighting. Despite all this, he was given the Knight's Bachelor's Badge from the Queen in 2000. During the ceremony, he wore traditional Scottish garments which appalled certain members of the British press.

    Sean Connery died peacefully on October 31st, 2020 in his home in the Bahamas. Several celebrities, actors, directors and public figures paid their respects.

    Outside of his role as James Bond, Connery portrayed Juan Sánchez Villa-Lobos Ramírez, a Spanish-Egyptian immortal in the 1986 fantasy film Highlander. Connery would also famously portray Dr. Henry Jones, Sr., father of Indiana Jones in the 1989 adventure film Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
