10 Actors Who Reprised Iconic Roles For Video Games
3. Sean Connery - From Russia With Love
Sean Connery seems to have mixed feelings about his time as Bond and appeared to want to distance himself from the character in later years. So it was a pleasant surprise for Bond fans when it was announced he was reprising the character for a game adaptation of From Russia With Love, which would also mark his final role before retirement.
Hearing his voice in action during the game feels a little strange since Connery’s voice has clearly aged while the character remains a young man. There’s still something thrilling about playing as the original (and let’s face it, best) Bond and getting to relive some iconic moments – like the fight with Red Grant - in game form.
From Russia With Love was hardly the best Bond game ever made, but for series fans playing as Connery’s 007 was a one of a kind experience.
