Here is a list of the major characters that are embodied by Franchise/JamesBond and its various incarnations and important roles.
'''Commander James Bond AKA 007'''
The James Bond actors each had a different version of the character, often quite different than Ian Fleming's Bond. An overall discussion of the whole character of Bond is a subject that has had entire books dedicated to it.
[[folder:All Bonds]]
->'''[[Creator/JudiDench M]]:''' Tell me what you know of James Bond.\\
'''[[Creator/RosamundPike Miranda Frost]]:''' He's a 00, and a wild one, as I discovered today. He'll light the fuse on any explosive situation and be a danger to himself and others. Kill first, ask questions later. I think he's a blunt instrument whose primary method is to provoke and confront. A man nobody can get close to. A womanizer.
* ActionHero: He is perhaps '''the''' CulturedBadass of cinema and one of the biggest in literature.
* AdaptationalHeroism: All the screen James Bonds are much LighterAndSofter than the character of the original James Bond stories, who even by '60s standards was quite [[http://io9.com/5086230/5-things-i-learned-about-women-from-the-james-bond-books misogynist]], [[http://www.papermag.com/2015/09/anti-idris_tracing_the_james_b.php racist]] and remained essentially a functional sociopath, although he did become more and more likable as the books go on. Even the more embarassing early Bond films are more heroic than their story inspiration, who can be summed up as a troubled, grim assassin than the suave, charming superspy in the films.
* AntiHero: Bond does have moral values, but given the job requires being ruthless and the license to kill lets him go scot free...
* BadassBaritone: Creator/PierceBrosnan being the only exception.
* BadassDriver: One of cinema and literature's best and most iconic.
* BadassInDistress: He's captured and bound or held at gunpoint at least once every movie or book, but always manages to keep his cool and find a way out.
* BadassInANiceSuit: You'll rarely see Bond wearing anything other than a tuxedo or a finely tailored suit.
* BadassLongcoat: He sometimes wear coats.
* BondOneLiner: Well, yeah. He's the TropeNamer after all.
* BornLucky: How else can you describe a man who has only been shot twice in the entire ''film canon''.
* TheCasanova: The guy seduces women left, right and centre.
* {{Catchphrase}}:
--> "Shaken, not stirred."
--> "Bond. James Bond."
* TheCharmer: Applies to Dalton's, Brosnan's and Craig's Bonds, who generally treat women with a bit more respect in comparison to the previous versions of the character.
* ChickMagnet: The ladies just can't resist him.
* CodeName: 007.
* CombatPragmatist: Each Bond will make use of whatever they can to get the upper hand in a fight, especially against a BigBad, where he'll use the most [[KarmicDeath karmic weapon he can get his mitts on]].
* CoolCar: They all have their trademark wheels. See the actors' respective pages for more of them.
* CulturedBadass: From a rich family and educated in some very elite private schools, yet also able to save the world, burn entire criminal organisations to the ground, face entire private armies armed with only a handgun and deliver constant one-liners on a regular basis.
* DeadpanSnarker: [[BondOneLiner Always has a quip ready for any situation]]. He's often been known to insult his captors [[NoMrBondIExpectYouToDine when they invite him to dinner]].
* DestructiveSavior: Dalton, Brosnan, and Craig especially.
* DrinkOrder: He really loves his vodka martinis. His second-favourite drink is Bollinger champagne.
* TheGambler: Bond is often seen in casinos. Generally, Bond's card game of choice is Baccarat, but in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'', [[WereStillRelevantDammit the game of choice is Texas Hold 'Em]].
* GeniusBruiser: Took a first in Oriental languages at Cambridge. Throughout the movies, he speaks or understands French, German, Italian, Japanese, Danish, Russian and several others. He demonstrates an excellent knowledge of multiples sciences, usually as good or better than the EvilGenius villains he is up against, everything from physics to chemistry to marine biology amongst others, as well as mathematics. He can drive or pilot almost any vehicle (and can usually identify the make and model of cars on sight, right down to noticing phony licence plates). He has an excellent knowledge of history and of course international politics. He is a wine and food connoisseur as well as a decent cook in his own right. He was a Navy commander in his previous profession, and his current career requires combined skills of world class assassin/spy/thief/detective, etc. Basically, it's more a question of what Bond ''can't'' do.
* GoodIsNotSoft: He will beat, blackmail, shoot or betray anyone if it helps his mission any further. However, he feels very uncomfortable killing in cold blood, especially in the books.
* TheHero: One of cinema's top 3, according to the American Film Institute.
* ImprobableAimingSkills: Each of the Bonds is a crack marksman: The Literary Bond [[Literature/ForYourEyesOnly lands a headshot]] on a speeding car with his PPK, Connery's Bond claims to have never missed with his Beretta when he's forced to change weapons in ''Film/DrNo'' and in ''Film/{{Thunderball}}'' he manages to shoot a clay pigeon without even looking at it and takes out Vargas with a HarpoonGun with a QuickDraw. Moore's Bond kills a sniper with a shotgun. Dalton's Bond fake-assassinates General Pushkin, who notes Bond's skill. Brosnan's Bond claims he never misses as a BondOneLiner. Part of Craig's Bond's character arc in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' is regaining his skills and he does with his [[AncestralWeapon father's rifle]]. Even Lazenby's Bond, who never manages to make a kill with his PPK onscreen, manages to show an impressive aim with a throwing knife and a calendar.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He initially comes off as being cold, misogynistic, brutal and snarky. But he has saved the world more than once, demonstrates a strong sense of justice, and is ''very'' protective of his friends or lovers.
* MayDecemberRomance: A lot of the actresses playing the {{Bond Girl}}s are younger than over a decade than the actors playing Bond.
* MrFanservice: Aside from nice or tight clothes, Bond can frequently be found shirtless (particularly post-coitus).
* TheNameIsBondJamesBond: He introduces himself in this manner in virtually every movie.
* OfficerAndAGentleman: Has the grade of [[CommandingCoolness Commander]]. ''Film/YouOnlyLiveTwice,'' ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe,'' and ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'' all featured him in his Royal Navy uniform.
* OneManArmy: His kill tallies are usually pretty high per film, especially during the Brosnan era. In total, he has killed 362 people up to ''Film/{{Skyfall}}''.
* OvertOperative: Bond is not exactly subtle about his methods of carrying out a mission. This is seen especially in the films, due to RuleOfCool.
** Largely averted by the novels, where Bond is pretty subtle and stealthy most of the time, and never really does anything too over the top in public.
* ThePornomancer: Many women who revile him at first end up in his bed, [[StrangledByTheRedString at times with no rational explanation why]].
* ProfessionalKiller: He is an assassin employed by the British government.
* ProtagonistTitle: Played with. The entire film franchise is named after him, but many films are subtitled.
* PublicDomainCharacter: Only in Canada. The literary 007 is public domain there due to 50 years passing since Fleming's death (most nations have it as 70 or 75 years).
* SociopathicHero: Especially in the Fleming novels and the earlier movies. Bond is intelligent, charismatic and manipulative with his courtship of women ranging from romantic to [[NotIfTheyEnjoyedItRationalization potential rape]] at worst (in Goldfinger, Bond's sexual encounter with Pussy Galore begins with him throwing her into a hay bale then getting on top of her and kissing her despite her saying "no" several times). Him quickly getting over his latest love interests between movies despite being stated to have loved them seems indicative of a LackOfEmpathy and [[ItAmusedMe need for stimulation]]; all together this makes for many of the traits that define a sociopath. Subverted in that he is indeed capable of compassion, something a true sociopath would never be able to do (unless he's good at faking compassion).
* TallDarkAndHandsome: The only one who is blond and under 6 feet is Daniel Craig, and he makes up for it in HeroicBuild.
* TuxedoAndMartini: Bond is the TropeMaker, TropeNamer ''and'' TropeCodifier. Although, pop culture tends to exaggerate this one, as he normally opts for a suit unless infiltrating a formal occasion.
* WaistcoatOfStyle: Every Bond has worn at least two.
* WeaponOfChoice: The legendary Walther PPK, normally equipped with a suppressor. Different Bonds had a preference for different calibres; Connery, Dalton and Brosnan carried it in .32 ACP, while Moore, Lazenby and Craig opted for the .380 ACP version. In ''Film/{{Octopussy}}'' and ''Film/NeverSayNeverAgain'', both Roger Moore and Sean Connery carried the 9x19mm Walther P5. Later in ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'', Brosnan's Bond gets a brand new 9x19mm Walther P99 which is used up until ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006''. Then in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'' and ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', the PPK returns due to "artistic reasons."
* WouldHitAGirl: It's rare, but once in while he will be violent towards a woman even if she wasn't a DarkChick who attacks first.
* YouAreNumber6: He is referred to as 007 by M.
[[folder: The Literary Bond]]
First appearing in ''Literature/CasinoRoyale'', Fleming's original Bond is very different to what modern readers would expect. He is a ProfessionalKiller first and foremost, more willing to be violent and does not always have the best attitudes to race or women. Yet, he eventually grows more and more heroic as the books go on, especially with the later writers.
* ActionHero: One of the biggest in literature. He [[Literature/LiveAndLetDie burns entire criminal organizations to the ground]], made [[Literature/{{Thunderball}} SPECTRE]] and [[Literature/FromRussiaWithLove SMERSH]] crap their pants, takes on entire private armies [[OneManArmy by himself]], [[Literature/DrNo fights a giant squid and wins]], is one of the scariest hitmen in fictional history, will [[Literature/CasinoRoyale win]] every single card game even when [[Literature/{{Moonraker}} drunk and drugged]], [[Literature/DiamondsAreForever gives crime lords spectacular deaths]] and is strong enough to [[Literature/{{Goldfinger}} stab a whole plane window]] hard enough to shatter. By the time of ''Literature/FromRussiaWithLove'', he's considered to be one of the most dangerous threats to SMERSH and a hero to everyone in MI6.
* TheAlcoholic: ''Holy nutballs.'' He's constantly seen drinking an alcoholic beverage in every appearance, and likes to mix coffee or water with alcohol. By the end of Fleming's run, he's consumed over [[http://thumbnails-visually.netdna-ssl.com/title-the-man-with-the-golden-liver_52aa474022381_w1500.jpg 1150 alcohol units]], including martinis, beer, whisky, bourbon, cocktails, gin and champagne. A tragic example comes in ''Literature/YouOnlyLiveTwice'', where Bond goes completely off the rails after Tracy's death, drunkenly wandering about London, thinking irrationally and getting ''multiple hangovers'' on a daily basis.
* AuthorAvatar: Of Creator/IanFleming, who was a Royal Naval Intelligence Division officer during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII.
-->'''[[Creator/LaraPulver Ann O'Neill]] in ''Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond'':''' Is that why he has your golf handicap and your taste in vodka?
* BadassBookworm: His job requires him to read through files of any topic that might be of use in or is related to his mission. As a result, he's already quite knowledgeable on a very wide range of subjects, from firearms to heraldry, and is constantly learning new information over each book.
* BadassInANiceSuit: He's often seen in a tuxedo or a dark blue tropical suit, which he wears a black knitted tie with.
* BerserkButton: The deaths of people close to him, Secret Service members or innocent civilians will get him angry.
* BraveScot: He's half Scottish, as ''Literature/YouOnlyLiveTwice'' reveals, and his family had their roots in Scotland.
* TheBrute: Although he ''is'' a good guy, he can be this at times. He's got a rather hot temper, is very well-built and is extremely good at unarmed or melee combat. He's also occasionally rude to most of his co-workers and enjoys irritating his secretary and M.
* ColdSniper: He remains silent while sniping and constantly focuses on trying to kill his targets. However, unlike other examples of the trope, Bond is uncomfortable with sniping missions due to his distaste for having to kill in cold blood.
* ConsummateProfessional: He tends to put his mission first and foremost over having sex with the Bond Girl, unless it's part of the mission itself. Particularly, in ''Literature/DrNo'', he successfully resists all temptation to bang Honey while she's cheerfully trying to seduce him.
* {{Determinator}}: No matter how much pain he's in, no matter what faces him and no matter what happens to him, he'll keep on going until his mission is complete.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: In his very first outing in the literary version of ''Literature/CasinoRoyale'', Bond is selected for the mission not because of how badass he is - though he is clearly a skilled agent - but because he is the Service's ''best gambler''; the objective is to bankrupt a Soviet agent at the baccarat table to force him to turn informant for Britain in exchange for protection from his irate masters.
* {{Handgun}}: Although he's used many other weapons, Bond is often seen with his trusty sidearm, which varies from writer to writer.
** Fleming originally gave him a .25 Beretta 418, until advice from Major Boothroyd lead Bond to obtain his signature PPK in ''Literature/DrNo'', although Bond initially took a .38 Centennial Airweight to Crab Key before losing it, later using a standard .38 S&W during the climax. Fleming also has him keep a Colt Single Action Army for attacking vehicles during car chases. In ''[[Literature/ForYourEyesOnly From A View To A Kill]]'', Bond is armed with a Colt 1911 during a stakeout.
** When John Gardner took over, he equipped Bond with a FN 1903, due to the PPK being withdrawn thanks to jamming when rescuing Princess Anne from a kidnapping attempt. After criticism from fans for choosing a very old pistol, Gardner had Bond using a HK [=VP70=] for the next 2 novels until finally settling on the ASP 9mm. Bond also keeps a .44 Ruger Super Redhawk in place of the Colt SAA.
** Raymond Benson had Bond switching between his signature PPK and the Walther P99. Appropriately, the PPK was used for covert missions, while the P99 was used during missions that did not require concealment.
** Anthony Horowitz arms him with a Remington 1911 in ''Trigger Mortis''.
* HiddenDepths: At first glance, James Bond may seem to be your typical SociopathicHero. However, unlike a true sociopath, he is indeed capable of compassion. Just that he doesn't show it very often within his line of work for obvious reasons. In fact, he is actually uncomfortable with targeted assassinations (instead of killing for the safety of himself or others) or, in the books, killing in cold blood.
* HitmanWithAHeart: At the core, Bond is just an assassin sponsored by his government. However, he never kills in cold blood, will try and protect anyone who gets caught up in his dangerous adventures and can be kind and caring to others.
* IcyBlueEyes: One of his most defining physical features, alongside the black comma of hair and the scar on his cheek.
* ProfessionalKiller: It's made very clear that despite becoming more of an international policeman as the books go on, he's still a government-sponsored hitman first and foremost.
* {{Jerkass}}: Particularly in his first two appearances. In ''Literature/CasinoRoyale'', he's extremely misogynistic, briefly musing that women are only good for sex, is rather rough with Vesper during sex and goes a huge internal StayInTheKitchen rant during a car chase. ''Literature/LiveAndLetDie'', meanwhile, has Bond being incredibly racist to blacks. And ''Literature/{{Goldfinger}}'' has him perform borderline sexual assault on Pussy Galore, be rather homophobic and shower intense hatred on Koreans.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: However, he gets better in ''Literature/{{Moonraker}}'', where he begins to develop into a hero and is willing to work with Gala Brand despite their differences, as well as wishing her luck with her actual fiancé at the end. ''Literature/DiamondsAreForever'' has Bond acting gentlemanly to Tiffany Case, caring heavily about his friends and innocent people and saving a manicurist from getting fired. In ''Literature/DrNo'', he's arguably at his most heroic, being kind to Honey, wanting to stop Dr. No's plan at all costs, feeling sadness at the deaths of Strangways and his secretary and treating Quarrel and the other Jamaicans as equals. Throughout ''Literature/{{Thunderball}}'', he's absolutely sweet with Domino and even begs to see her when injured and in hospital. And of course, there's ''Literature/OnHerMajestysSecretService'', with him falling head over heels for Tracy. Even in ''Literature/{{Goldfinger}}'', where he's considerably more cynical and rude, he's openly caring to the Masterton sisters (even giving Jill one thousand dollars for herself), admires Pussy Galore for being a female gangster and horrified at the damage caused by the nerve gas to the town around Fort Knox.
* KnightInSourArmor: He's always willing to save the world and fight against the supervillains he faces, but he's cynical from the constant death and trauma he faces, as well as the darker sides of his work.
* LadykillerInLove: Falls absolutely in love with both [[Literature/CasinoRoyale Vesper Lynd]] and [[Literature/OnHerMajestysSecretService Countess Teresa di Vincenzo.]] Sadly, both don't end well. Smaller examples of this are with [[Literature/DiamondsAreForever Tiffany Case]] and [[Literature/{{Goldfinger}} Pussy Galore]], who he lives with. [[StatusQuoIsGod However, he broke up with both of them eventually.]]
* MadeOfIron: He tanks a ''lot'' of damage frequently. He's has his groin flogged with a carpet beater, burned, attacked by a giant squid, stomped on with football boots, electrocuted, poisoned, shot with his own Beretta, tortured and suffered various nasty falls throughout Fleming's run. Of course, he's soon back up and running for the next mission.
* OneManArmy: It's implied that part of his job is to ''be'' one. Often, he's sent out alone to take on entire criminal organisations or private armies and always manages to completely destroy them by the end of the book, though it's deconstructed in ''[[Literature/ForYourEyesOnly From A View To A Kill]]''. Because he's so used to going up against a huge threat alone, Bond goes up against several heavily armed Russian operatives without any backup and nearly gets killed as a result.
* RealMenWearPink: Bond apparently watches a lot of Creator/{{Disney}} movies in his spare time, seeing how he was able to recognise various characters [[Literature/NeverSendFlowers during his visits to Walt Disney World.]] As well as that, Bond enjoyed the park so much on his first visit that he turned his two day visit into a week long stay.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: His ones can go across ''[[UpToEleven several books.]]'' ''Literature/CasinoRoyale'' to ''Literature/FromRussiaWithLove'' are basically him declaring bloody vengeance on SMERSH for the death of Vesper Lynd. He goes on a smaller one in ''Literature/YouOnlyLiveTwice'' to rain hell on Blofeld for murdering Tracy.
* ScarsAreForever: The three-inch scar on his right cheek remains throughout his career and the Russian letter carved into his hand can be still faintly seen.
* SociopathicHero: Originally, Bond was a prime example of this trope, being manipulative, cold and having no problems about forcibly seducing women when he felt like it. Bond eventually steps out of this role, becoming much less sociopathic and more likable. Some of the short stories in particular, such as "For Your Eyes Only" and "The Hildebrand Rarity" in ''Literature/ForYourEyesOnly'' and "The Living Daylights" in ''[[Literature/OctopussyAndTheLivingDaylights Octopussy and the Living Daylights]]'', reveal a Bond uncomfortable with targeted assassinations (as opposed to killing in defense of himself and others) and capable of considerable empathy. ''Literature/FromRussiaWithLove'' also has him feeling discomfort when Kerim shoots a fleeing hitman in the back. And in ''Literature/DrNo'', when Bond is forced to gun down three guards to keep him and Honey safe, he feels very uncomfortable doing it, even though said men could have been the Three Blind Mice and were heading off to gang rape Honey.
* TrademarkFavouriteFood: He really, really, ''really'' loves scrambled eggs. He's infamously picky about them too, to the point where he actually has his own recipe as seen in ''Literature/OctopussyAndTheLivingDaylights.'' Bond also enjoys pasta and mentions it as a weakness of his.
* WouldHitAGirl: He ''really'' likes threatening to spank women when he's annoyed. However, he never gets around to doing so, thanks to his strong moral code and falling in love with them. Interestingly, he has no problems threatening women, but when Quarrel interrogates Annabel Chung in ''Literature/DrNo'', Bond is worried that Quarrel might actually break her arm.
[[folder:Sean Connery]]
As the first cinematic Bond,[[note]]but not the first person to play him--that title goes to Barry Nelson in the 1954 TV movie ''Casino Royale'' while the first person to play a British Bond was Bob "I'll have a Q, Bob" Holness in a 1956 South African radio version of ''Moonraker''[[/note]] Connery is perhaps the best known. When people think of Bond, they often think of his distinctive accent and his suave sophistication. In fact, it was due to Connery's portrayal that Bond was canonically established as half-Scottish. First to employ the BondOneLiner, naturally.
* AdaptationalHeroism: Common to all James Bond, but as the first, Sean Connery set the trend of being much LighterAndSofter than the original Ian Fleming character. Namely his suave and cool persona, where the original tended to be TheBrute at times and was more willing to open fire than Connery's Bond.
* AuthorAvatar: Sean Connery was a working-class Scot and was initially dismissed by Ian Fleming as an "overgrown stuntman". His on-screen persona was modelled a great deal on director Terence Young, who backed the actor and helped him build the suave persona that made Bond distinct.
* BaldOfAwesome: Defied. Connery lost his hair very young and wore a toupee for the part, but apparently disliked doing so and pushed for the Broccolis to let him play a bald Bond.
* BraveScot: Creator/IanFleming approved of the portrayal so much that he actually made Bond's Scottish ancestry canon in [[Literature/JamesBond the novels]].
* CarpetOfVirility: Lampshaded in ''Film/YouOnlyLiveTwice'' where the Japanese women are curious about his chest rug, as Japanese men don't tend to have it.
* TheCasanova: Every film has him at least flirting with multiple women.
* CoolCar: The Aston Martin [=DB5=], one of cinema's most iconic.
* DisposableWoman: Sean loves 'em and leaves 'em, sometimes in a coffin.
* DoubleEntendre: Very fond of these, especially in ''Film/DiamondsAreForever.''
* ForcefulKiss: His courtship is anything but subdued.
%%* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Choleric.
* GoodIsNotNice: Connery's Bond isn't exactly a pleasant chap, but he's incredibly charming and still a good guy.
* HandsomeLech: Domino and Tatiana are the only women he shows much affection to. The others are merely rides in the hay. He was quite good with the two girls in Japan, Aki and Kissy. He seems happy to marry either of them, and is actually a little disappointed when he learns his marriage to Kissy is a sham.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Zigzagged. He claims that he's never cared for redheads, but of all the Bonds, he's slept with more redheads than the others.
* HeroicBuild: Connery used to be a bodybuilder, after all.
* MrFanservice: Became one of the biggest sex symbols of the 1960s.
* NiceHat: Was the only Bond to really wear hats and he wore a number of fedoras in the earlier films.
* NoIndoorVoice: A fairly restrained version. It's not so much that he shouts a lot, but his voice certainly packs a lot of baritone power.
* OohMeAccentsSlipping: Connery attempted an English accent in ''Film/DrNo'' before NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent. By then Fleming had confirmed the character as being Scottish because of his portrayal, so it didn't really matter.
* ThePornomancer: Even by Bond standards. He's also the only Bond to [[CureYourGays make a lesbian heterosexual]].
* RatedMForManly: He is often described as the "manly" Bond. The [[https://totorogo.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/tumblr_mb89evip1a1rrse0wo5_1280.jpg front cover of GQ's Nov. 2012 issue]] nicknamed Connery's version as "The Fighter" to allude to these macho qualities.
* SmokingIsCool: His EstablishingCharacterMoment pretty much solidifies this with his iconic delivery of the line "BondJamesBond."
* TropeMaker: Connery built the standards on Bond's important character traits.
* URExample: He's acknowledged as the very first on-screen Bond.
* WouldHitAGirl: He intentionally used Fiona Volpe as a human shield in ''Film/{{Thunderball}}'', and he nearly strangles Marie with her own bikini top in ''Film/DiamondsAreForever'' in order to gain information about Blofeld's whereabouts.
[[folder:George Lazenby]]
Lazenby was an obscure actor and an obscure Bond. He only appeared in one movie, ''Film/OnHerMajestysSecretService''. However, it is well liked among hardcore Bond fans and casual viewers alike. The film is widely ''assumed'' to be bad, since if it had been good, Lazenby would have made more, right? Well, not really. Lazenby's problems were primarily behind the scenes, and the fact that he was replacing Connery made it a no-win situation with some critics, but most of that criticism has faded with time. The film is well regarded these days among those who have seen it. Lazenby says that he didn't return because he was given advice not to. Apparently his agent told him that the Bond franchise [[ItWillNeverCatchOn was on its way out]] and hippy movies were the next big thing. [[CashCowFranchise Boy was that wrong]]. Lazenby fired his agent soon afterwards.
* CartwrightCurse: George Lazenby's loss is the most tragic in the series (save for Vesper in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'').
* TheCasanova: He seduces an entire RESORT of beautiful women.
* TheCastShowOff: George Lazenby is the '''only''' Bond Actor to date who is an ''actual'' Martial Artist (Black Belt in Shotokan-Ryu Karate, to be exact), not to mention being a former student and friend of BruceLee himself. Thus he gets to spectacularly show off on several occasions throughout his turn as 007.
* ChivalrousPervert: Tracy starts out as suicidal and emotionally unbalanced, but Bond gives her a reason to live.
* CombatPragmatist: Even more so than Connery, and possibly to Craig's levels. When Lazenby's Bond fights you, you're in trouble.
* ContinuityNod: Combined with a rare example of BreakingTheFourthWall. "This never happened to the other fella."
* DownerEnding: Of all of the Bonds, he's the only one to end his run on a tragic note.
%%* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Phlegmatic.
* HeartbrokenBadass: After [[spoiler:Tracy's death]]. The [[https://totorogo.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/tumblr_mb89evip1a1rrse0wo3_1280.jpg front cover of GQ's Nov. 2012 issue]] called Lazenby's Bond "The Loner" as reference to this trope.[[note]]As well as a StealthPun on the fact that Lazenby only portrayed Bond once.[[/note]]
* HeroicBuild: As with the CombatPragmatist element, Lazenby's Bond was a precursor to Craig's Bond in this regard, as his on-screen moments (and set photos) show.
* LadykillerInLove: He's so in love with Tracy that he's willing to give up his skirt-chasing ways and marry her.
* ManInAKilt: Wears a kilt while undercover at the ski resort. One of the women there attempts to determine if he's GoingCommando.
* ManlyTears: After [[spoiler: Tracy's death, and damned if they aren't deserved]]. It cuts away just as they're starting to show, though.
* MrFanservice: Lazenby was a model before being Bond, and he looks good.
* WouldHitAGirl: He slaps Tracy across the face when questioning her about the thug who had just tried to kill him.
[[folder:Roger Moore]]
Moore tended to play his Bond [[LighterAndSofter more for comedy]], but he did do it pretty serious at times, as in ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly''. He probably hung around too long, and was older than Connery when he took over the role, and is tied with Connery for the number of Bond movies made. He's perhaps the most polarizing actor on this list, since two of his movies--''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'' and ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly''--are among the most well-received Bond flicks, while ''Film/{{Moonraker}}'' and ''Film/AViewToAKill'' are considered among the worst.
* BadassBookworm: Roger Moore's character compensated for not being as tough as Sean Connery by acting like 007 had an IQ in the excess of 200 and expertise on every subject in the world.
* BadassGrandpa: He was the oldest and longest running actor in the series, starting at the age of 46 and ending at the age of 58.
* BerserkButton: People who take ''pleasure'' in senseless murder, especially that of women and innocents. Scaramanga and Zorin both found that out the ''hard'' way.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: When you push him too far, he's completely ruthless and won't stop till the person that's pissed him off is dead.
* TheCasanova: Same as Connery. The [[https://totorogo.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/tumblr_mb89evip1a1rrse0wo4_1280.jpg front cover of GQ's Nov. 2012 issue]] labeled Moore's Bond as "The Lover" to denote this trope as his most distinctive trait.
* CharacterDevelopment: Bond is a royal jerk in ''Film/LiveAndLetDie'' and ''Film/TheManWithTheGoldenGun'', but he's mellowed out by ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe''.
* CoolCar: ''Lotus Esprit''. The thing could turn into ''a submarine'' when needed.
* TheDandy: Roger Moore loves his clothes, and used his own tailors for his version of Bond. Also, the tradition of Bond wearing a tuxedo in the gunbarrel sequence started with him.
* DisposableWoman: Roger Moore's Bond is even more heartless than Sean Connery's version in his early films. He improved as time went on, and by ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly'', he probably had as healthy a relationship with women as he's ever had (a 16-year-old girl trying to seduce him notwithstanding).
* DoesNotLikeGuns: Roger Moore kills a ridiculous amount of bad guys on screen--167 according to at least some counts, and recently was revealed to have the highest body count in the series, at 121 kills. However, he only rarely does so using a gun. He prefers to toss them off buildings or use elaborately odd weapons like a explosive air pellet. That said, he's also actually shot the BigBad on at least two occasions, something other Bonds have not done.
* DoubleEntendre: The end of ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'' has one of the greatest in the series, when M, Grey, and Gogol catch Bond and Agent Triple X in the throes of passion.
'''Gogol''': Triple X!\\
'''Defense Minister Grey''': Bond, what do you think you're doing?\\
'''Bond''': (''{{beat}}'') Keeping the British end up, sir! (''closes curtain'')
%%* EvilCounterpart: Scaramanga.
%%* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Sanguine.
* GentlemanSnarker: The most comedic Bond, in fact.
* HandsomeLech: His courtship was pretty shady in his first two films, but by ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'', he'd [[ChivalrousPervert become a lot more gentlemanly]].
* ImprobableWeaponUser: He employs some pretty outlandish weaponry when he's stuck, most notably the shark pellet from ''Film/LiveAndLetDie''.
* {{Jerkass}}: In his first two films, before becoming a JerkWithAHeartOfGold.
* LighterAndSofter: His movies were fairly light compared to the original films with Sean Connery and ''Film/OnHerMajestysSecretService''.
* LongRunners: He's the longest on-screen Bond, playing the character for twelve years.
* MoodWhiplash: Like Brosnan's era, Moore's Bond movies were interlaced with some very serious scenes and some very silly ones.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: Moore's James Bond was always playing nicer than he really was, as his many cold-blooded executions across his movies proves.
* OlderAndWiser: Especially in ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly'', where he warns Melina about the double-edged nature of revenge, speaking as though from experience (having avenged [[Film/OnHerMajestysSecretService his wife]] by killing [[LawyerFriendlyCameo Blofeld]] in the pre-titles sequence, this was likely intentional).
* OlderHeroVsYoungerVillain: With Max Zorin and May Day in ''Film/AViewToAKill''.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Creator/RogerMoore is three years older than Creator/SeanConnery, and looked about 10 years younger when he was cast as Bond at 45.
* {{Omniglot}}: Is shown to know more languages than the other Bonds.
* QuintessentialBritishGentleman: His Bond is easily the most gentlemanly.
* StiffUpperLip: He maintains his equanimous composure, despite mayhem so often surronding him--moreso perhaps than the other Bonds.
* TookALevelInKindness: Starting in ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe''.
* TheTrickster: He ''loves'' messing with the villains.
* WouldHitAGirl: He almost breaks Andrea Anders' arm in ''Film/TheManWithTheGoldenGun'' while interrogating her (this scene greatly displeased Moore). In ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'', 007 deploys a missile which destroys a helicopter along with its female pilot Naomi.
[[folder:Timothy Dalton]]
Nothing will start an argument among Bond fans as quickly as praising Timothy Dalton, [[LoveItOrHateIt the Marmite of Bond actors]]. He began the trend of portraying Bond [[DarkerAndEdgier with a darker tone]], and is still considered the darkest of all of them (rivaled only by Daniel Craig), which some felt was needed after the sometimes overly comedic Moore films. He was also [[PromotedFanboy a fan of the books]] and tried to create Ian Fleming's Bond on-screen twenty years before Craig and the Bond producers ever thought of doing so. At the same time, he has also been praised for having the most realistic love scenes. The producers actually considered him for ''Film/OnHerMajestysSecretService'', but he felt he was too young at the time, and didn't want to be the one that replaced Connery.
* TenMinuteRetirement: In ''Film/LicenceToKill'', where he goes AWOL to pursue revenge on [[BigBad Sanchez]].
* TheAtoner: ''Film/LicenceToKill'' has been interpreted by many as Bond trying to atone for his failure to protect Tracy.
* BerserkButton: Hurting his friends is the best way to make him angry.
* BlessedWithSuck: Dalton's character seems awfully annoyed that he has a fabulous life of impossibly beautiful women and world travel.
* BloodierAndGorier: He's much more ruthless with his executions in ''Film/LicenceToKill''.
* ByronicHero: Helped by the fact that Dalton has also played Rochester.
* TheCharmer: Oddly, not as much of a ChickMagnet as his predecessors. To compensate, however, he tends to form closer attachments with women than the previous iterations.
* CoolCar: Aston Martin V8 Vantage Volante in ''Film/TheLivingDaylights''. It comes with machine guns and a snowmobile conversion.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Differed ''very much'' from Roger Moore's version; to some extent, he's still the darkest version of the character.
%%* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Melancholic.
* GrandRomanticGesture: Perhaps not especially 'grand' compared to most romantic heroes, but when compared to the previous (and later) versions Dalton's Bond has a bit of a knack for sweet romantic gestures towards his Bond girls:
** In ''The Living Daylights'', he bunks off the latest mission he's been assigned to in order to hear Kara's first concert in the west, and surprises her by sneaking into her dressing room to prepare a romantic encounter with drinks.
** In ''License to Kill'', after seeing Pam flee the party heartbroken after Lupe begins to flirt with him again, he jumps off a balcony into a swimming pool below in order to catch her.
* GrumpyBear: In ''Film/TheLivingDaylights'', but slowly mellows by the end of the film.
* HeartbrokenBadass: In ''Film/LicenceToKill'', to the point where he's highly reluctant to have Pam and Q help him on his mission to take down Sanchez.
* HoneyTrap: One of the few occasions that Bond is explicitly identified as being such.
* ItsPersonal: Sanchez destroyed Felix Leiter's life almost completely. Bond is NOT pleased.
* KnightInSourArmor: More than the previous versions, takes a cynical view toward his missions and his MI6 superiors. That still won't prevent him from doing the right thing, whether part of his assignment or not.
* ManipulativeBastard: Dalton's Bond is essentially Iago to [[BigBad Sanchez's]] Othello in ''Film/LicenceToKill''.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: ''Film/LicenceToKill''. No mission, just a [[ItsPersonal personal revenge]].
* RogueAgent: In ''Film/LicenceToKill'', he goes rogue to avenge Felix and his wife.
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Although all the Bonds are willing to disobey orders to do what's necessary, Dalton's Bond seems more inclined to take ethical and moral objections to some of his orders. He merely wounds a sniper instead of killing her in ''Film/TheLivingDaylights'' because he can tell at a glance that she's inexperienced and out of her depth rather than being a professional. In the same movie, he's reluctant to assassinate General Pushkin because he respects the Soviet and doesn't believe that he's a murderous psycho, only agreeing out of honour ("If it ''must'' be done, I'll do it."). His RoaringRampageOfRevenge in ''Film/LicenceToKill'' is prompted by his disgust that his superiors and the American authorities aren't going to do anything to avenge Felix Leiter, but the fact that Leiter's wife was brutally murdered as well ''really'' seems to outrage him.
** The [[https://totorogo.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/tumblr_mb89evip1a1rrse0wo6_1280.jpg front cover of GQ's Nov. 2012 issue]] even gave Dalton's Bond the designation "The Rebel" because he embodies this trope more than the others.
* TurnInYourBadge: In ''Film/LicenceToKill'', as a result of his RoaringRampageOfRevenge.
* WarriorPoet: Bond has at least one lengthy dissertation about how he hates his job and it would be doing him a favor to fire him.
* WouldHitAGirl: In ''Film/TheLivingDaylights'', his superiors accuse him of the [[WouldntHitAGirl opposite trope]], at least if she's beautiful, after he risks a defection by shooting the gun out of a female sniper's hands instead of shooting her dead. Bond counters that he has no problem shooting women, attractive or otherwise--what he ''has'' a problem with is shooting people who aren't involved in the spy business; he could tell from the way the supposed KGB sniper was handling her gun that she wasn't experienced with firearms, and therefore couldn't be a trained assassin.
[[folder:Pierce Brosnan]]
Brosnan is the person whom people tend to think of when they imagine Bond in the post-UsefulNotes/ColdWar era, especially among viewers who came of age in TheNineties and ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'' was the first Bond flick they saw. He was supposed to appear in ''Film/TheLivingDaylights'', but the production staff of ''Series/RemingtonSteele'' decided to pull a fast one on EON Productions. Brosnan was just what the franchise needed after the six-year hiatus due to legal issues, and he was the first actor since Connery whose casting was widely embraced by the general public. He also scores points for looking the most like Bond as Ian Fleming described him (black hair that falls into a comma over the right eye, cold blue eyes).
* EightiesHair: He kept his poofy ''Series/RemingtonSteele'' hairdo[[note]]this was done on purpose to appeal to Brosnan's fans from the show[[/note]] (but toned down a bit) for ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}''; in fact, the easiest way to tell that he only filmed one gun barrel scene for his run as Bond is his big hair. He changed to a more modern style by the time ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'' rolled around.
* TheAce: Has a habit of upstaging people (but usually the villain) at whatever their skillset is. No matter what they can do or how long they've been doing it, Bond will do it better than them with no prep time or practice. At least when it comes to sword fighting, this trope even applies to Brosnan in RealLife, as Toby Stephens[[note]]it's worth noting that Stephens is 16 years Brosnan's junior and has a more muscular build than his older co-star[[/note]] reveals in one of the bonus features on the ''Film/DieAnotherDay'' Blu-Ray.
-->'''Stephens''': I'm slightly cheesed off with Pierce, who hardly came in, has just picked [the sword fighting] up as we've gone along. I mean, he's brilliant, he's just gone on with it, while I've been practicing it for months!
* AlwaysSaveTheGirl: It's his natural inclination to do this.
** ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'': There is a double subversion in the train scene because he tells Alec to go ahead and kill Natalya (a civilian), but Bond chooses to save her life first even though he knows Trevelyan and Xenia will most likely escape.
** ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'': Subverted when Mr. Stamper threatens to drown Wai Lin. Although Bond had promised her twice that they would survive the mission together, she (a fellow agent) reminds him that it's his duty to destroy the missile, so he focuses on the task at hand.
** ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'': As he is chasing [[spoiler:Elektra]], an imprisoned M (who fears that she may soon die in a nuclear meltdown if Renard has his way) yells out Bond's name as he passes by her cell. 007 then uses the ShootOutTheLock method to free his boss before he continues his pursuit. And the first thing he does when boarding Renard's submarine is to free Christmas Jones from captivity inside a small room.
-->'''Bond:''' Thought I'd forgotten you already?
** ''Film/DieAnotherDay'': While Graves and his team are preparing to flee Iceland, Bond's priority after he kills Zao should've been to go after them, but instead he rescues Jinx, who was drowning in the melting ice palace.
* TheAtoner: Trevelyan straight up asks him, "...if you find forgiveness in the arms of all those willing women for all the dead ones you failed to protect." Bond's attitude throughout ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'', ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' and ''Film/DieAnotherDay'' (specifically his [[http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x390eac desperate attempt to resuscitate Jinx]]) indicates that this statement has left him pretty rattled.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: With M. There is often friction between the two of them, but deep down they're fond of each other. The most obvious example occurs in ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'', where M delivers a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to Bond and even says she has no problem sending him to his death as long as it was worthwhile, yet M's farewell to him is:
-->'''M''': Bond?\\
'''Bond''': ''(turns around to look at her)''\\
'''M''': ''(tries to hide a smile)'' [[TryNotToDie Come back alive.]]\\
'''Bond''': ''([[WhenHeSmiles smiles warmly at her]])''
* BadassDriver: One of the franchise's best, a prime example being his remote control back seat run through a parking lot in Hamburg in his BMW during ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies''.
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Played with in ''Film/DieAnotherDay''. He is filthy with a shaggy beard and hair after being tortured for 14 months. This is Bond at his most unkempt in the entire ''series'', and audiences at the time were a bit shocked to see the character in such a disheveled state. However, Bond is still in remarkably good shape for someone who had endured that type of hell for so long. All it takes are a single shave, a hair cut and a change of clothes for Bond to become sexy again.
* BeardOfSorrow: More like a Beard of Imprisonment near the beginning of ''Film/DieAnotherDay''.
* BeneathTheMask: The suave, sophisticated mask that he normally wears hides both a deep-seated bitterness and a surprising amount of tenderness.
* BerserkButton: Betrayals and killing people he cares about. Alec Trevelyan, [[spoiler:Elektra King]], Elliot Carver and Dr. Kaufman paid with their lives when they slammed down on this. [[spoiler:Miranda Frost]] only narrowly avoids this fate by Bond's hands because [[spoiler:she disabled his gun without his knowledge]].
* CaptainCrash: Natalya is utterly convinced that Bond destroys every vehicle that he gets into; she's not entirely wrong. He drives a motorcycle off a cliff into a nosediving plane and barely straightens it in time; he barely manages to eject out of a helicopter before its own missiles destroy it; he wrecks a huge portion of St. Petersburg in a tank by ramming right through buildings; he derails an armoured train by ''firing a tank shell'' at it, and then uses the tank as a roadblock; he barely escapes the booby-trapped train before it blows up; then, in Cuba, the plane he's flying gets shot down by a surface-to-air missile. In ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'', he famously runs his [[CoolCar BMW 750]] off the top floor of a multi-storey car park and into the Avis rental office by remote.
* CarpetOfVirility: Like Sean Connery before him, several shots linger on his.
* TheCharmer: Like Dalton's version, there is at least one Bond Girl in each movie whom he sincerely likes. M invokes this trope when she says, "...[your] boyish charms, though wasted on me, obviously appealed to that young woman I sent to evaluate you." The [[https://totorogo.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/tumblr_mb89evip1a1rrse0wo2_1280.jpg front cover of GQ's Nov. 2012 issue]] even used this trope's title as Brosnan's Bond most defining feature.
* CheshireCatGrin: When Pierce Brosnan's Bond smiles at you, you know you're in trouble.
* ChivalrousPervert: He's just as prone to bawdy innuendos and sleeping around as the other Bonds. The big difference is that he genuinely cares about the women in his life, and does everything he can to keep them safe. He is affectionate towards Natalya, Paris got "too close for comfort," he is unusually protective of Wai Lin even before they officially become allies, he falls in love with Elektra, and his [[http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x390eac sheer panic (and later relief)]] when he attempts to resuscitate Jinx proves that she's not just a notch on his bedpost.
* CompositeCharacter: Of Moore's snarky British gentleman and Dalton's gritty secret agent, with some of Lazenby's vulnerability and Connery's masculinity. Brosnan's interpretation of 007 was therefore the most versatile among the actors.
* CoolCar: Various BMW models. And an Aston Martin once again in ''Film/DieAnotherDay''.
* DeliberateValuesDissonance: Brosnan's Bond is the same arrogant chauvinist that Connery's and Moore's were, but the world around him is a lot more forward-thinking and fed up with his politically incorrect attitude.
* DestructiveSaviour: Lampshaded in this exchange from ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'':
-->'''Sir Robert King''': Be careful, M, I might try to steal him from you.\\
'''Bond''': Construction isn't exactly my speciality.\\
'''M''': Quite the opposite, in fact.
* DoubleEntendre: A drinking game could be made out of every time Brosnan looks uncomfortable with these. The actor has admitted that he absolutely ''despised'' having to say those lines.
* DrowningMySorrows: In ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'', with vodka in his hotel room after he shuts down the power at Carver's party.
* TheDulcineaEffect: This is a stronger trait in Brosnan's Bond because it's made explicit in ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'' that he's constantly trying to atone for the women whose lives he wasn't able to save. He is protective towards all of the good (and two who pretend to be good) Bond Girls.
* FatalFlaw: ''All'' of the {{Big Bad}}s from the Brosnan era (Alec Trevelyan, Elliot Carver, [[spoiler:Elektra King]] and Gustav Graves) have remarked upon his fatal weakness for women, and they exploit it to some degree.
* {{Foil}}:
** To Alec Trevelyan, who is an EvilCounterpart of himself and is equal to him in every way.
** To Xenia Onatopp, a DarkActionGirl who shares three of Bond's passions: motoring, baccarat and sex (although in the case of the latter, she's ''far'' more violent and sadistic than he is).
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Choleric.
* GentlemanSnarker: His default setting, but Gustav Graves knows it's just a performance: "The unjustifiable swagger, the crass quips, the self-defense mechanisms concealing such inadequacy."
* TheHero: Brosnan's Bond was specifically catered to [[TheNineties '90s]] tastes and sensibilities in order appeal to the broadest audience possible (especially women, as the actor already had a built-in female fanbase from ''Series/RemingtonSteele''), so his 007 was devised as a "sensitive action hero." As a result, Brosnan's Bond became the [[ChivalrousPervert most romantic]][[note]]for instance, his character falls in love with ''two'' women, plus critics have observed that Brosnan's sex scenes focused more on him "making love" to his leading ladies rather than "ploughing" through them[[/note]] and the [[OneManArmy most violent]][[note]]his reign relied more heavily on his character running around and shooting baddies with automatic weapons, which was in vogue for action flicks during this time period[[/note]] in comparison to the other actors. Although Brosnan's average onscreen kill count is the highest in the franchise, revealing a more [[BeneathTheMask gentler side]] to his personality made his 007 more [[LoveableRogue sympathetic and accessible]] to casual '90s moviegoers.
* HurtingHero: Throughout the Brosnan films, it's clear that Bond is not a happy man. He doesn't allow himself to dwell on emotional pain for too long, but he nevertheless carries it around with him.
* HiddenDepths: Like all Bond incarnations, he's a playboy. Unlike many of them, he's one of the few who is actually good at the more mundane aspects of spying such as surveillance and breaking in and entering.
* HoneyTrap: He is under orders from M to "pump" his OldFlame Paris Carver for information about her media mogul husband's organization, which he reluctantly does even though he knows the seduction will put Paris' life in danger.
* IcyBlueEyes: The instant he slips off his debonair exterior, the DeathGlare in his blue eyes is all you need to see in order to know that he means ''business''. Creator/RobertCarlyle even makes note of this quality in the "Bond Cocktail" featurette on ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' Blu-Ray.
-->'''Carlyle''': [Brosnan]'s just got that Celtic edge to him, really, and I think he's got that hardness to him [...] ...you can believe that Pierce Brosnan could kill you, actually. He's got something in his eyes.
* ItsPersonal[=/=]{{Revenge}}: The villains who get under his skin are Alec Trevelyan, [[spoiler:Elektra King]], Elliot Carver and [[spoiler:Miranda Frost (she's notable in that Bond attempted to shoot her in the head the moment he discovered that she was TheMole in MI6 who betrayed him, but he failed to get his revenge because Miranda jammed the firing mechanism of his gun the night before)]].
* JerkassFacade: Natalya calls him out on it in ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}''.
-->'''Natalya''': How can you act like this? How can you be so cold?
-->'''Bond''': It's what keeps me alive.
-->'''Natalya''': No, it's what keeps you alone.
* KillTheOnesYouLove: He's the only Bond who has experienced the tragedy of executing a [[spoiler:woman he loves, namely Elektra.]]
* KnightInSourArmor: He notes in ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' that "Cold-blooded murder is a filthy business." As distasteful as it is to him, he'll do whatever it takes in to get the job done.
* LackOfEmpathy: Subverted. Although he seems callously aloof when he takes a life, Trevelyan asks him in ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'' "...if all those vodka martinis ever silence the screams of all the men you've killed," which suggests that Bond is haunted by the murders that he has committed. Bond himself mentions in ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'', "I usually hate killing an unarmed man." He is [[http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x39g39v unnerved by the sight]] of [[spoiler:Miranda Frost's]] corpse, whom he had tried to murder earlier on in ''Film/DieAnotherDay'' because [[spoiler:she was TheMole at MI6]]. Bond isn't the one who is responsible for [[spoiler:her]] death, yet his facial expression leaves no doubt that he finds it unsettling even though he wanted [[spoiler:Miranda]] dead for betraying him.
* LadykillerInLove: It's downplayed in his case because he wasn't given a romance which was explored as deeply as Tracy di Vicenzo or Vesper Lynd, but his character is nonetheless unique in the original continuity because he falls in love with ''two'' women (Paris Carver and Elektra King).
* LighterAndSofter: In comparison to Dalton's Bond, although that doesn't mean he can't be ''deadly'' serious.
* LoveHurts: He only permits himself a brief moment to grieve over the corpses of [[spoiler:Paris Carver and Elektra King]]. In both cases, he touches their hair before he must carry on with his mission.
* LoveableRogue: Closer to this than earlier iterations. Even [[TheMafiya Valentin Zukovsky]] can't bring himself to truly screw him over.
* ManChild: More so than any other actor, Brosnan placed greater emphasis on his character being an emotionally stunted man. Bond fears commitment in a romantic relationship because he abandons his girlfriend Paris when he realizes that he's falling in love with her. Witness his childish glee as he "drives" his remote-controlled car during the multi-level parking lot chase scene. After Wai Lin compliments him on his motorcycle skills, his reply invokes this trope: "Well, that comes from not growing up at all." M describes his brand of charisma as "boyish," and Q says "Grow up, 007!" twice in exasperation. Alec asks Bond, "Why can't you just be a good boy and die?", Natalya accuses him of being "boys with toys," and Jinx scoffs, "You're a big boy; I figured you could handle yourself." M even vaguely serves as a maternal figure towards Bond, which further emphasizes his immaturity.
* MasterOfYourDomain: In ''Film/DieAnotherDay'', he is able to lower his heart rate to the point where it appeared that he was dying.
* MessyHair: He was a prisoner in North Korea for 14 months, so naturally his hair becomes untidy and long without any grooming.
* MidSeasonUpgrade: Changes sidearms after losing his PPK in ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'', opting for the Walther [=P99=] that he obtains from Wai Ling. He notes that he asked Q to get him one and it subsequently becomes the standard sidearm of [=MI6=] until Daniel Craig's Bond switches back to the PPK.
* MoreDakka: Pierce Brosnan expended more ammunition than all other Bonds combined. When he is in action, he was mostly seen with an automatic weapon alongside his sidearm.
* MoodWhiplash: The Brosnan films have some of the darkest moments in the entire series; for example, Bond's execution of [[spoiler:his own lover Elektra King]], and being tortured in North Korea for 14 months. Yet mixed in with this was a dependency on puns and gadgetry.
* MrFanservice: He has at least two {{Shirtless Scene}}s per movie, which is not surprising because Brosnan was a very popular sex symbol during TheNineties (and it even stretches back to his ''Series/RemingtonSteele'' days in TheEighties).
* NervesOfSteel: In ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'', he's surrounded by machine gun fire as he's arming a bomb in the SupervillainLair, and he simply tilts his head to the left when bullets nearly hit his head, acting as if they're no more a nuisance than a house fly.
* NewOldFlame: Paris Carver, whom Bond had dated and dumped at some point before ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'' because she "got too close for comfort."
* ObfuscatingStupidity: What he normally does. When he drops the act, run like the wind.
* OlderHeroVsYoungerVillain: This occurs with [[spoiler:Elektra King]] and Gustav Graves.
* OneManArmy: On average, he kills more people on-screen than any other Bond by a wide margin. His personal kill count in ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'' alone was 47, according to [[http://www.theguardian.com/film/datablog/2012/oct/05/james-bond-bodycount-deaths this article]].
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'': After Paris Carver is [[spoiler:murdered]], Bond calls Elliot Carver by his given name instead of his surname as a sign of disrespect and of how much more personal the conflict between them has become because Bond had truly [[spoiler:loved Paris]]. He had only done this once before with a villain (Alec Trevelyan, who used to be his best friend).
** ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'': He typically slays baddies without a second thought, but he's willing to spare [[spoiler:Elektra King]]'s life and simply arrest [[spoiler:her]] if [[spoiler:she]] aborts the EvilPlan because he's still [[spoiler:in love with her]]. Bond even gives [[spoiler:Elektra]] not just one, but ''three'' chances to live ("Call him off. I won't ask again; call him off. CALL HIM OFF!!!"), but the BigBad foolishly ignores his threats.
* ParentalAbandonment: ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'' was the first film to mention his parents' deaths during a climbing accident when he was a child.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: Subjects this to [[spoiler:Elektra King, who had almost killed him in a garrotte chair, shot Zukovsky, imprisoned M, and masterminded the plan to nuke Istanbul]].
* PerpetualFrowner: When he's serious.
* PerpetualSmiler: He's usually got a boyish grin on his face... although [[StepfordSmiler it's rarely genuine]].
* PreMortemOneLiner: Every villain in his movies is dispatched with one. He also delivers an utterly ''chilling'' one to the man who [[spoiler:murdered Paris Carver]] in ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies''.
-->'''Dr. Kaufman:''' [[DirtyCoward Wait! I'm just a professional doing a job!]]\\
'''Bond:''' [[TranquilFury Me too]].
* ProductPlacement: Dressed almost exclusively by Brioni (which resulted in a really obvious shot of packaged shirts in ''Film/DieAnotherDay'').
* PungeonMaster: Q actually tells him off for it in ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'' after they blow up a mannequin with an exploding pen.
-->'''Q:''' Don't say it!\\
'''Bond:''' ...The writing's on the wall?\\
'''Q:''' Along with the rest of him!
* RealityEnsues: Both his first film and final film open with this trope. In ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'', his UsefulNotes/ColdWar misogynist personality only earns him derision from his female boss. In ''Film/DieAnotherDay'', he proves incapable of breaking out of a high-security military custody on his own, and only manages to get his freedom back because his superiors trade him with an enemy agent.
* RefugeInAudacity: In ''Film/DieAnotherDay'', when he tries to check into a fancy Hong Kong hotel looking like he had barely survived a shipwreck. He just struts into the lobby like he owns the place, and pays no heed to the shocked gasps or {{Disapproving Look}}s of the guests and staff.
* RogueAgent: In ''Film/DieAnotherDay'', he loses his 00 status and becomes a prisoner of MI6 until they can determine just how culpable he was with the information leak that led to the execution of an American agent. Bond manages to escape the British vessel holding him captive, and he operates on his own until M unofficially recruits him to investigate Gustav Graves.
* RuleOfSexy: The producers found excuses to show off [[ChickMagnet Brosnan]]'s CarpetOfVirility even outside of bed scenes.
** ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'': Strictly speaking, the first fight scene between Bond and Xenia didn't have to occur near the pool of his hotel, but it did allow for a few FemaleGaze shots of him swimming, and in addition to only being dressed in his swimming trunks, he's dripping wet during their confrontation.
** ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'': The first few buttons of the blue shirt he wears in Saigon are undone, so much of his chest is exposed. Ditto for the black shirt he sports under his combat vest during the final battle. In fact, Bond displays more skin than Wai Lin throughout the entire movie! This is probably the first time in the franchise where 007 is objectified ''more'' than a Bond Girl.
** ''Film/DieAnotherDay'': There is no valid reason for him to be shirtless during his first scene with M (the doctors had already done a thorough scan on his body some time ago, and Bond was merely resting before M visits him). He later escapes from the warship, and although he's wearing a blue shirt, he doesn't bother to button it even before he enters a posh Hong Kong hotel. For the sake of decorum, you'd expect that Bond would ''at least'' cover up his torso.
* ShootTheDog: Willing to kill former lover [[spoiler:Elektra. But then again, she is the villain and had just tried to break his neck.]]
* ShutUpHannibal: He's fond of throwing the villain's motive rants back in their faces.
* SmokingIsNotCool: He calls smoking a filthy habit in ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies''. Besides a cigar in ''Film/DieAnotherDay'', Brosnan's Bond doesn't indulge in tobacco.
* TechnicallyASmile: Easily his most ''frightening'' expression.
* TranquilFury: If a villain's ''really'' gotten under his skin, the flippant attitude totally disappears.
* UnkemptBeauty: The make-up department tried to make Brosnan look as unattractive as possible after his character had been imprisoned and beaten up for 14 months, yet the director of ''Film/DieAnotherDay'' undid some of its intended effect by giving the actor a gratuitous ShirtlessScene, so Bond still appears quite healthy (and remains at least somewhat desirable in the eyes of Brosnan's fangirls) in spite of the long-term torture.
* WellDoneSonGuy: There is a quasi-mother/son dynamic between him and M. In ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'', he is somewhat mortified when he discovers that M knows about his past sexual encounters (almost like a naughty boy who has been caught by his stern mother), and Bond even tries to defend his promiscuous behaviour with, "That was a long time ago, M, ''before'' [Paris] was married." In ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'', M mentions to Elektra King that Bond is her best agent, but she'd never tell him that in person. In ''Film/DieAnotherDay'', Bond's delivery of "You burn me, and now you want my help" is petulant and resentful, and the hurt he feels towards M for not trusting him earlier is more personal than professional. Brosnan even said that he wished that it was his Bond the one who was with M when [[spoiler:she died in ''Skyfall'']].
* WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: Brosnan's English accent is... inconsistent to say the least. Having said that, [[TropesAreNotBad it makes sense]] for a half-Scottish half-Swiss character who's lived in England for several decades.
* WhenHeSmiles: It's rare, but when he does show a heartfelt smile, oh ''James...''
* WomenAreWiser: ''He'' of all people, invokes this when he informs Mr. Stamper, "Never argue with a woman; they're always right" after Wai Lin tosses the detonation fuses to him and insists that Bond complete their mission at the expense of her life. ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'' had already established that Brosnan's 007 carries a [[TheAtoner deep psychological need]] to AlwaysSaveTheGirl, so by respecting Wai Lin's wishes, he's also respecting her as a fellow soldier. Relatively speaking, he's more willing to recognize a woman's intelligence than his predecessors, and part of this stems from his greater awareness that he's a ManChild.
* WouldHitAGirl: The flip-side of being portrayed as a more female-friendly 007 is that he can be just as ruthless to a villainess as he is to a villain, so he's more gender-blind as an assassin. He has the dubious distinction of being the only Bond to execute two evil women ([[spoiler:Xenia and Elektra]]), and there would've been a ''third'' if [[spoiler:Miranda hadn't jammed his gun]].
[[folder:Daniel Craig]]
When Daniel Craig was cast as 007, he got a lot [[TaintedByThePreview of]] [[TheyChangedItNowItSucks flak]] from the press. He was blond. He was short.[[note]]Well, 5'10". The other Bonds were all over 6 feet.[[/note]] He wore a life jacket on a speedboat ride to the announcement. A "Craig Not Bond" movement started up. Then ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'' came out, and hardly anyone even remembers the furor anymore. Craig's interpretation of 007 is often regarded as a successor to Dalton's.
* TheAlcoholic: Just like the novel counterpart, he drinks far too much. On average, Craig's Bond consumes the most alcohol per movie in comparison to his cinematic predecessors. ''Spectre'' has him flat out admitting that he has a drinking problem.
* AmbiguouslyBi: His first conversation with [[DepravedBisexual Silva]] in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' seems to indicate he swings both ways. Kind of. It's delivered with Bond's signature snarkiness and usage of double entendres. WordOfGod (namely actor Creator/DanielCraig) says that his version of Bond would be willing to "use" men in the same way [[TheCasanova he uses women]].
* BadassBeard: In ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', where he keeps the BeardOfSorrow for a while after coming back to MI6.
* BadassDriver: In the tradition of his predecessors.
* BeardOfSorrow: Grows one in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}''.
* BerserkButton: Destroying the things he cares about. [[spoiler:In ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'', it's the death of Vesper Lynd. In ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', [[CoolCar it's his Aston Martin DB5.]]]]
* BlueBlood: ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' reveals his family owned a large estate in Scotland, complete with an OldRetainer.
* BondOneLiner: {{Lampshaded}} in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'' when M realizes exactly what Bond means when he says someone was a Dead End.
* BraveScot: Fleming was so impressed by Connery that he canonically established Bond as a Scot. ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' confirms on screen that Bond was born in Scotland.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: Despite a rough exterior, Daniel Craig's Bond still has a human side, as expressed with Vesper, Mathis and Camille.
* ByronicHero: Craig's Bond is a cold-blooded killer with severe emotional issues and a penchant for revenge, who broods over the morality of his job and losing his loved ones.
* CartwrightCurse: None of the named women he sleeps with survive the whole movie.[[spoiler: Madeleine Swann becomes the first in SPECTRE, since Lucia Sciarra's fate is unknown]].
* TheCharmer: He is capable of seduction at will.
* CombatPragmatist: Notably so. No Bond fights fair, but Craig's employs everything from knives to nail guns to fire extinguishers. Probably reaches its apogee in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'', in which in the space of one 35-second fight, he puts his knife-wielding opponent through two glass doors, pummels him with two different improvised blunt instruments, and finally stabs him to death with a pair of nail scissors.
* ConvenientlyAnOrphan: One of the major reasons he got recruited, according to M.
* CoolCar: Has them in spades and all of them Aston Martins: The DBS V12 [[spoiler: (which he barrel-rolled spectacularly in ''Casino Royale'')]], The [=DB10=] [[spoiler:(which, according to Q in ''Spectre'', was supposedly meant for 009; and yet he sunk in the Tiber River trying to get away from Mr. Hinx)]], and as always the classic [=DB5=] [[spoiler:(which was destroyed by Silva's goons in ''Skyfall'', then rebuilt by Q in time for ending of ''Spectre''.)]]
* CowboyCop: He ignores any orders he doesn't like.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Unlike his bubblier predecesors, he's a ByronicHero with an even bigger penchant for {{revenge}}, much colder and more methodical.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Lost his parents at a young age, only to soon be recruited by MI-6 as a potential field agent.
* DentedIron: In ''Film/{{Skyfall}}''.
* DrowningMySorrows: Drinks heavily in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' after falling into a depression over M abandoning him.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Melancholic.
* GeniusBruiser
* GuileHero
* HeartbrokenBadass: After [[spoiler: Vesper dies in ''Casino Royale''.]]
* HerosClassicCar: A number of vehicles appear throughout ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', but before retreating up to his family's estate, Bond ditches them in favor of a 1965 Aston Martin [=DB5=].
* HeroicBuild: An extremely muscular man, as his numerous {{shirtless scene}}s can attest.
* {{Hunk}}
* HurtingHero: Loses numerous friends, family and lovers over the course of his career.
* HoneyTrap: Seduces Solange Dimitrios to get info on her assassin husband in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'', and then paper pusher Strawberry Fields to keep MI-6 off his back in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace''.
* IcyBlueEyes: Which make him look even more stoic/cold-blooded, just like the literary version.
* ItsPersonal
* JackOfAllStats: He's athletic, but can't match the [[LeParkour skills]] of his quarry and has to use his brain, working the environment, to make up the difference. Also in Film/{{Spectre}}, while he is remarkably strong, he comes nowhere near [[TheDragon Mr Hinx]].
* KnightInSourArmor: Takes a grim view of his job, as he considers murder his "employment," but refuses to let that shake his incredible loyalty to his country, MI6, and M.
* LadykillerInLove: He's ready to give up everything he's ever known (including his career at MI6) in order to start a new life with Vesper Lynd, the love of his life, [[spoiler: and again with Madeline Swann]]
* MadeOfIron: Daniel Craig's Bond gets beaten up more than any other of his kind, jumps from dangerous heights and survives a heart attack but ends up fine & kicking arse the next minute.
* ManlyTears: The '''only''' Bond to date to shed tears ''onscreen,'' in response to [[spoiler:the death of M, the closest thing he had to a mother left in this world.]]
* MoreDakka: Uses a Heckler and Koch UMP-9 in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'' and ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'' and a 500 Nitro Express hunting rifle as well as a HK-416 assault rifle in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}''.
* MrFanservice: Has a surprising amount of {{Shirtless Scene}}s. Also [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006''.
-->'''Vesper:''' I'll be keeping my eyes on the money, and off your perfectly formed arse.\\
'''Bond:''' You noticed.\\
'''Vesper:''' Even accountants have imaginations.
* OneManArmy: Especially in his later films. Almost to Pierce Brosnan levels.
* ParentalAbandonment: In ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', we see the gravestone of his parents, Andrew Bond and Monique Delacroix, who passed away when he was a child.
* PerpetualFrowner: Even when he smiles, he looks unhappy.
* PlatonicLifePartners: With his boss M (Judi Dench).
* ProfessionalKiller: More so than the previous incarnations, there is a greater emphasis during the Craig era that murder is just a normal--even mundane--part of his job. The [[https://totorogo.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/tumblr_mb89evip1a1rrse0wo1_1280.jpg front cover of GQ's Nov. 2012 issue]] dubbed his Bond as "The Hitman" for this very reason.
* RatedMForManly: One of the manliest Bonds after Sean Connery.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: His assault on the Perla de las Dunas Hotel to stop Greene in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'' is also the occasion for him to take revenge on Carlos, the rotten police chief who killed [[spoiler:Mathis]].
* RogueAgent: Briefly in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace''.
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight
* SociopathicHero: Especially in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006''.
* TheStoic: This Bond is more emotionally reserved than in other incarnations.
* TurnInYourBadge: Subverted. Bond just ignores orders he doesn't like.
* UndyingLoyalty: [[spoiler:To Judi Dench's M; he follows her orders even after she's dead and can go behind Mallory's back to do so.]]
* WhatHaveIBecome: According to the DVD commentary in ''Casino Royale'', after he killed Obanno and his bodyguard, he looks himself in the mirror while he changes his shirt, asking to himself these exact words.
* VigilanteMan: He has shades of this.
* WhenHeSmiles: Near the end of ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006.''
'''Supporting Characters'''
The books and movies have several recurring characters, many of whom appear in every installment.
[[caption-width-right:300:[[labelnote:Click here to see]]http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Gareth_Mallory_Profile_240.png[[/labelnote]][[spoiler:Gareth Mallory]]]]
->'''Played by:''' Bernard Lee (19621979), Robert Brown (19831989), Creator/JudiDench (19952012), Creator/RalphFiennes (2012)
James Bond's boss, the head of MI6.
* AlliterativeName: The original M was ([[BritsWithBattleships Admiral]] [[UsefulNotes/KnightFever Sir]]) Miles Messervy.
* AllThereInTheManual: Assuming Robert Brown's M was Admiral Hargreaves, Judi Dench's M holds the distinction of being the only M whose name is not revealed in the entire film series (she apparently didn't like it, since her response to Bond when he was about to say it out loud was, "Utter one more syllable and I'll have you killed"). A prop from the end of ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' reveals that her name is [[spoiler:Olivia Mansfield]].
* AnyoneCanDie: [[spoiler:Judi Dench's M at the end of ''Film/{{Skyfall}}''.]]
* BaitAndSwitchTyrant: [[spoiler:Mallory at first seems like a {{Jerkass}} ObstructiveBureaucrat, then proves himself to be a badass ReasonableAuthorityFigure near the end of the film, paving the way for him to become the new M]].
%%* BigGood
* BoyishShortHair: In the case of Dench's M, her hairstyle represents the suppression of her femininity in order to succeed in a male-dominated field. She even tells Bond in ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' that her job requires her to ignore her maternal instincts. She keeps the short hair in the Craig era, but by then it has more to do with the fact that Dench is in her late 70's.
* TheChainsOfCommanding: Creator/JudiDench's version needs to make the hard decisions, no matter what her personal feelings are. Best exemplified in ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' when she ignores her maternal-like connection to Elektra King and uses the younger woman ''twice'' as bait to try to catch the terrorist Renard, and in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' when she orders Eve to take a shot that endangers Bond's life.
* CodeName: M is simply a title given to the head of MI6.
* ColonelBadass: [[spoiler:Gareth Mallory, who was a Lt. Colonel in the SAS and survived torture at the hands of the IRA during UsefulNotes/TheTroubles.]]
* CoolOldLady: Creator/JudiDench's take on the character.
* DamselInDistress: M is imprisoned in the appropriately-named Maiden's Tower in ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'', and Bond must rescue his boss from [[spoiler:Elektra]]'s clutches.
* DarkSecret: In ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'', M is so ashamed over how she handled Elektra King's kidnapping that she sealed Elektra's file so that no one else can access it. When Bond requests the classified information as an employee, M flatly refuses with a stern warning ("I will not tolerate insubordination, 007"), so he resorts to using their implicit mother-son relationship (the gentle way he asks, "What happened?") before she willingly discloses a painful part of her past.
%%* DaChief
* DeadpanSnarker: Bernard Lee's M can really get in some good jabs when he wants to. Judi Dench's as well.
%%* DistinguishedGentlemansPipe: Bernard Lee.
* {{Expy}}: of Rear Admiral John Godfrey, commanding officer of the Royal Naval Intelligence Division during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII.
* {{Foil}}: In ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'', M and Elektra King are powerful women who have very different ways of exercising control within a patriarchal system. Elektra overuses her femininity to manipulate the men around her, whereas M suppresses her femininity to maintain her authority over her employees (especially male chauvinists like Bond); when handling Elektra's kidnapping, M even explicitly states that she went against her instincts as a mother.
* FrontlineGeneral: While not getting directly involved, Bernard Lee would often set up a field office not too far from where Bond was working. Judi Dench also got into scrapes a couple times, and [[spoiler:fully embraced by Gareth Mallory, who is involved in numerous actions during his tenure]].
* HeroAntagonist: Robert Brown becomes this in ''Film/LicenceToKill'' when he tries to stop a [[RogueAgent rogue and increasingly reckless]] Bond.
* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: Creator/JudiDench's M is, by her own admission, a terrible shot.
* IronLady: Creator/JudiDench's M, in the Daniel Craig movies in particular as his Bond is more "wild" than Pierce Brosnan's, and therefore she has to be more stern with the former in order to try to keep him under control.
* ItsPersonal: Bond accuses M of this in ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'', as she was a very close friend of Sir Robert.
-->'''Bond''': I brought the money in that killed King.\\
'''M''': Don't make this personal.\\
'''Bond''': I'm not; are you?
* LegacyCharacter:
** The first M (Admiral Sir Miles Messervy) was Bernard Lee. As he died before ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly'', [[TheCharacterDiedWithHim M is absent]] and Bond is briefed by the Minister of Defence and Bill Tanner. (a painting of Lee even appears on the MI6 headquarters during the Brosnan years).
** In ''Film/{{Octopussy}}'', Robert Brown is the new M (possibly Admiral Hargreaves, the government official Brown played in ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'').
** In ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'', Creator/JudiDench took over the role ([[RealLifeWritesThePlot inspired by the MI6 being led by a woman at the time]]), and remained there in the Daniel Craig years despite the ContinuityReboot.
** [[spoiler:Dench dies in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', but in the film's ending, Gareth Mallory (Ralph Fiennes) becomes the new M. Dench's M recorded one more order for Bond which was played back in ''Film/{{Spectre}}'' which resulted in the Mexico City incident]]
* MomentKiller: Bernard Lee's M constantly interrupts Bond and Moneypenny's flirting.
* NoSenseOfHumor: Robert Brown's M had little to no humor.
* NoodleIncident: In ''Film/FromRussiaWithLove'' M and Moneypenny are listening to an audio recording sent to them by Bond. When Bond starts to mention an embarrassing incident involving M in Tokyo, M ''immediately'' pauses the recording and dismisses Moneypenny from the room.
* ObstructiveBureaucrat: Robert Brown in ''Film/LicenceToKill'', who places following orders over Bond's personal vendetta.
* ParentalSubstitute: Judi Dench takes on a motherly ToughLove role to Bond throughout the Daniel Craig years. This is also present to a lesser extent during the Pierce Brosnan era, where M mentions to Elektra King that Bond is her best agent, [[WellDoneSonGuy but she'd never tell him that in person]]. As a close friend of Sir Robert King, M is a maternal figure towards his daughter Elektra (whose mother had passed away some years ago before the events of ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'').
%%* PowerHair: Judi Dench.
* PropheticName: Besides possibly Hargreaves, all of the canonical people holding the title have last names and sometimes first names as well starting with "M."
* PunnyName: Dench's M "[[spoiler:Olivia Mansfield]]" appears to be a pun on "[[spoiler:I live in a man's field]]."
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Especially Bernard Lee's M, often doing all he can to give Bond the elbow room he needs. For instance, in ''{{Film/Moonraker}}'', after Bond ends up embarrassing both him and Frederick Gray, M is forced to take Bond off the case until he produces a vial of the gas he recovered in Drax's laboratory. M decides to give him a two-week leave of absence in order to pursue a lead in Rio.
* SpellMyNameWithABlank: Eventually his full name was revealed, but at first it was given as M*** M***.
* TautologicalTemplar: Robert Brown in ''Film/LicenceToKill'' reacts cold-heartedly to the Leiters' tragedy, labels Bond as a RogueAgent for caring about them, claiming that it's not MI6's business (despite the many times Leiter assisted them), and then orders MI6 operatives to arrest Bond or even execute him if necessary when he goes rogue.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Robert Brown in ''Film/LicenceToKill'', who was very abrupt and harsh with Bond when he confronts him in Florida about the neglect of his duties, due to his vendetta, showing NoSympathy towards Felix's tragedy and criticizes Bond for lack of professionalism and objectivism. Brown also [[BadBoss treats Moneypenny slightly poorly then before]], criticizing her for making typing errors and placing her personal feelings for Bond over his status as a RogueAgent.
* SuddenSequelHeelSyndrome: Robert Brown in ''Film/LicenceToKill'' is noticeably more of an insufferable heartless {{Jerkass}} ObstructiveBureaucrat and even a BadBoss towards Bond and Moneypenny than his past appearances. Same can be said for the rest of the MI6 agency.
* UngratefulBastard: Despite all the service Leiter has done for MI6, Robert Brown in ''Film/LicenceToKill'' shows NoSympathy towards his tragedy that involves him losing a leg and having his bride murdered.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Lee's M and Connery's Bond, for all their bickering, were still clearly friends (to the point that they once [[NoodleIncident apparently wingmanned for each other in Japan]]). This is most obvious in ''Film/{{Thunderball}}'', where M repeatedly defends Bond in front of his doubting superiors.
* WalkingSpoiler: It's impossible to talk about [[spoiler:Mallory]] without mentioning that [[spoiler:Judi Dench's M dies in ''Skyfall'', and he inherits her position afterwards.]]
!!Miss Moneypenny
->'''Played by:''' Lois Maxwell (19621985), Caroline Bliss (19871989), Samantha Bond (19952002), Creator/NaomieHarris (2012)
M's secretary, who has a not-so-secret crush on Bond.
* ActionGirl: Harris' Moneypenny was an MI6 field agent who worked along side Bond before she decided to take a desk job as [[spoiler:Mallory's]] secretary.
* BoyishShortHair: Samantha Bond's character sports this hairstyle in all of the Brosnan era movies besides ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}''.
* CompositeCharacter: The book incarnations of Moneypenny and Mary Goodnight were combined to create the film version of the former. Goodnight was the secretary of the 00 section, and most of the film Moneypenny's flirtation with Bond comes from his interaction with Goodnight in the books.
* TheCutie: [[http://bondgirls4ever.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/carolinebliss005.jpg?w=370&h= Caroline Bliss's]] Moneypenny, helped by the fact that she has blond hair and is a {{Meganekko}}.
* DeadpanSnarker: Especially the Lois Maxwell version on when Bond flirts with her.
* {{Expy}}: of Second Officer Monday, Rear Admiral Godfrey's secretary.
* OldRetainer: Lois played Moneypenny all the way from ''Film/DrNo'' to ''Film/AViewToAKill''.
* RaceLift: The new Moneypenny starting in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', played by Naomie Harris.
* RetiredBadass: The Naomie Harris incarnation of Moneypenny decides that she isn't cut out for field work after the events of ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', so she takes a transfer to become M's secretary.
* SassySecretary: The original and the best.
* SexySecretary: Seeing how often Bond flirts with her/them.
* SheCleansUpNicely: In ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'', Bond compliments her black evening dress, calling it "lovely" and pondering if she's "dressed to kill."
** And again in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', telling her, "You look beautiful in that dress."
* SleepsWithEveryoneButYou: Bond happily seduces any semi-attractive woman... except for Moneypenny.
* SmokingIsNotCool: In ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'', Bond gives her a cigar as a souvenir from his trip to Bilbao; the first thing she does is toss it in the garbage can.
* TookALevelInBadass: Her interpretation in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' shows her outside of the office for the first time, and then some.
* {{UST}}: With Bond, much to her dismay. Although in ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'', Moneypenny goes to work after a date, [[WereStillRelevantDammit and states she can sue Bond for sexual harassment]].
** As of the reboot, given the very potent DidTheyOrDidntThey scene between them in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', it might not be so unresolved after all. And if it is, it might be to ''his'' dismay rather than hers--notice that he's trying to undress her at one point before she slaps his hand away, and he is visibly jealous in ''Film/{{Spectre}}'' (after ''another'' DidTheyOrDidntThey scene) when he calls her and he realizes that she has a gentleman visitor (a notable reversal of the typical Bond/Moneypenny dynamic).
->'''Played by:''' Peter Burton (1962), Desmond Llewelyn (19631999), Creator/JohnCleese (2002), Creator/BenWhishaw (2012)
Codename for "Quartermaster." He is the man who gives Bond all those wonderful toys. Played by Peter Burton in ''Film/DrNo'', before being played by Desmond Llewelyn for a ''very'' long time--[[Film/FromRussiaWithLove 1963]] to [[Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough 1999]], in seventeen of the eighteen pictures released during that time.[[note]]''Film/LiveAndLetDie'' didn't feature the character at all.[[/note]] When Llewelyn died in 1999, the character had already retired in ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' and one of his subordinates became the new Q, played by Creator/JohnCleese, in ''Film/DieAnotherDay''. The character did not appear in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'', nor did he in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace''. He was reintroduced in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', this time played by a much younger actor, Creator/BenWhishaw.
* {{Adorkable}}: Unlike his cantankerous predecessors, Whishaw's Q has a polite, quiet demeanour and a preppy fashion sense which make him cute and geeky. It is turned UpToEleven in ''Film/{{Spectre}}''.
* ActionSurvivor: Downplayed but still present in ''Film/{{Spectre}}'', with him going into the field himself to assist Bond, also putting himself at risk (not that he knew it at the time) and uses nothing but his wits to escape the SPECTRE agents pursuing him. Later in the film, [[spoiler:he even accompanies M, Tanner and Moneypenny to stop Denbigh's plans.]]
* AscendedExtra: Ben Whishaw's Q does considerably more than just give Bond his gadgets.
* BoringButPractical: Q in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' provides James with much more mundane (but still effective) weapons for espionage, dismissing the old Q's classic exploding pens with "We don't really go in for that anymore."
* BrainyBrunet: As portrayed by Ben Whishaw.
* CatchPhrase:
-->"Now, pay attention, 007"
-->"Now this, I'm particularly proud of"
-->"Grow up, 007!" (Brosnan years)
* CodeName: Q is code for Quartermaster.
* CoolOldGuy: As played by Desmond Llewelyn, he sometimes enjoys setting up pranks in his labs. And he provides cool gadgets to Bond, naturally.
* DeadpanSnarker: Ben Whishaw especially. He consistently snarks at Bond and stealthily castigates him for returning most of his equipment in pieces.
* {{Expy}}: Of Charles Fraser-Smith, GadgeteerGenius for the Special Operations Executive during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII.
* GadgeteerGenius: He's the one who gives MI6 all of their gadgets.
* HollywoodHacking: Ben Whishaw's Q specialty in addition to giving Bond his gadgets.
* HollywoodNerd: As played by Creator/BenWhishaw. The producers had simply placed NerdGlasses on an attractive actor.
* InSeriesNickname: When introduced to the John Cleese Q and told he'll shortly be replacing the Desmond Llewelyn one, James immediately brands him "R". He was even listed with that name in the credits and a few other pieces of related media before being given the title Q in ''Film/DieAnotherDay'' (apparently Pierce Brosnan had real trouble [[OohMeAccentsSlipping keeping his English accent]] when saying the word 'R').
* InsufferableGenius: In ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', the incoming Q shows disdain for field agents like Bond, believing his computer and hacking skills are more valuable for espionage in the modern age, although he does admit that "every now and then a trigger has to be pulled." He also mocks the idea of fantastic gadgets like an "exploding pen," instead opting to give Bond simple, (but useful) gadgets instead.
* JustAKid: Bond's opinion of the new Q in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}''.
* KindheartedCatLover: In ''Film/{{Spectre}}'', Q reminds Bond that he'd prefer not to be fired because he has a mortgage and two cats to feed.
* LegacyCharacter: Like M. John Cleese's Q was previously the assistant to the old Q. Ben Whishaw's Q is explicitly mentioned by M to be the new Quartermaster.
* MadScientist: He shows elements of this occasionally.
* MeaningfulName: Refers to "Q-devices," the Special Operations Executive's technical term for spy gadgets, which in turn refers to "Q-ships," the disguised warships the Royal Navy used to protect supply convoys from German submarines during UsefulNotes/WorldWarI.
* MissionControl: In ''Film/{{Skyfall}}''. He operates the majority of [=MI6=]'s computers and verbally guides the agents through their missions from afar.
* MrFixit: When a piece of equipment is broken, it's Q who repairs it, although not without plenty of snarking at the agents responsible for said brokenness.
* NoBadassToHisValet: Young Q is very nonchalant and snarky around Bond, showing no fear or hesitation to reprimand him for destroying equipment. He even snatches weapons right out of [[ProfessionalKiller Bond's hands]], who responds with little more than a raised eyebrow and amused smirk.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Ben Whishaw's Q is this per his character development in ''Film/{{Spectre}}''. With him cracking some jokes at Bond regarding his often-destroyed equipments.
* NotSoDifferent: Ben Whishaw's Q and Daniel Craig's Bond. They are both very talented, but they both started out in MI6 without that much experience, which makes people question if they are too young to be in their positions.
* OldRetainer: Desmond Llewelyn's Q was the sole element that made the transition from the classic UsefulNotes/ColdWar-era films to the Brosnan films.
* PassingTheTorch: In ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'', Llewelyn's Q retires and appoints Cleese's "R" as his successor. "R" only lasted one film before the reboot eliminated and then changed the Q character altogether.
* ShoePhone: The reason James is the single most well-known user of such items seen in countless parodies. Listing all the inventions he's given James disguised as innocuous items would take up the whole page.
* TheSmartGuy: In ''Film/{{Skyfall}}''. He designs all of the agents' gadgets, runs [=MI6=]'s MissionControl, and tells Bond point-blankly that he can destroy someone's life without getting out of his pajamas in the morning.
* TheStoic: Whishaw's Q typically doesn't show much emotion, and even when he does panic (like in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' where he mutters, "[[PrecisionFStrike Oh shit, shit, shit, shit]]. He hacked us"), his reaction is still fairly muted considering how urgent the situation has become.
* SnarkToSnarkCombat: Any scene they share with Bond.
* TakeThat: Whishaw's Q makes one to the exploding pen from ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'' in ''Skyfall'', saying to Bond, "We don't really go in for that anymore".
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: He and Bond argue quite a bit, but Q's gadgets have saved Bond at least once a movie.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Llewelyn's Q and Bond really do care about each other, as seen in ''Film/OnHerMajestysSecretService'', ''Film/LicenceToKill'', and ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough''. Whishaw's Q and Craig's Bond seem to be shaping into this, shaking hands at the end of their first scene together. They all but say to each other "I respect you now because you held your own in our verbal bout."
[[folder:Felix Leiter]]
!!Felix Leiter
->'''Played by:''' Jack Lord (1962), Cec Linder (1964), Rik Van Nutter (1965), Norman Burton (1971), David Hedison (1973; 1989), John Terry (1987), Jeffrey Wright (20062008)
Bond's friend in the CIA.
* AnArmAndALeg: He gets his leg fed to a shark in ''Film/LicenceToKill''. Perhaps as a result, he never appears again until the Daniel Craig reboot and is substituted by another American agent, Jack Wade, in the Brosnan era.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: In the book of ''Literature/TheManWithTheGoldenGun'' he criticizes Bond's slight admiration for Scaramanga, saying that as far as he is concerned, an enemy is just an enemy. He also takes exception to the CIA [[DealWithTheDevil working with Greene]] in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace''.
* CoolShades: Jack Lord wears sunglasses in ''Film/DrNo''.
* DeadpanSnarker: David Hedison and Jeffrey Wright.
* FriendOnTheForce: Backs up Bond with CIA informations in ''Film/DiamondsAreForever'' and ''Film/LiveAndLetDie''.
%%* TheGenericGuy: In ''Film/{{Thunderball}}'' and ''Film/TheLivingDaylights''.
* HandicappedBadass: In the later novels, after being partially eaten by a shark in ''Literature/LiveAndLetDie.'' He acquires a {{hook hand}} as well as a [[ArtificialLimbs prosthetic leg]].
* HeroOfAnotherStory: Most notably in ''Film/DiamondsAreForever'' and ''Film/LicenceToKill''.
%%* TheLancer
* OvershadowedByAwesome: A subversion for the most part, since his job is usually to provide CIA support for Bond while MI6 handles the mission. It's played straight in ''Film/LicenceToKill'' and the Daniel Craig films, however.
* RaceLift: Beginning with ''Casino Royale'', Felix is black, whereas he was white before (although he had also been black in the "unofficial" ''Film/NeverSayNeverAgain'').
* SpotlightStealingSquad: Notably averted. Since the producers didn't want him to become an EnsembleDarkhorse (for American audiences especially), they deliberately recast the role in every film he appeared in (except for ''Film/LicenceToKill'', where a familiar Leiter was considered crucial for the story to work).
* TraumaCongaLine: In ''Film/LicenceToKill'', Felix not only loses his legs, but his new wife is raped and killed. Needless to say, this is Felix's last appearance in the 007 franchise until it was rebooted with ''Casino Royale''.
* UnseenCharacter: Leiter is mentioned, but not seen in ''Film/{{Spectre}}''.

->'''Played by:''' Michael Goodliffe (1974), James Villiers (1981), Michael Kitchen (1995; 1999), Rory Kinnear (2008)
M's Chief of Staff in the MI6.
* BritishStuffiness: As played by James Villiers in ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly'', Tanner was really, ''really'' stuffy. The way he hands his assignment to Bond in the film makes M look rather warm in comparison.
* ButtMonkey: A mild one in the Craig films.
* NumberTwo: As Chief of Staff, he's the second in command to M in the MI6.
* OnlyFriend: Bond's only friend in the novels. Never quite reaches that level in the films, although they're on good terms in the Brosnan years, and in ''Film/{{Spectre}}'', they are close enough to have honest conversations about the controversial intelligence reorganization.

->'''Played by:''' Colin Salmon
An MI6 agent who assists M in ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'', ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' and ''Film/DieAnotherDay''.
* CanonForeigner: His character was created for ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'' when Michael Kitchen (who had portrayed Bill Tanner during the Brosnan years) became unavailable.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Disappears once Creator/DanielCraig takes over as Bond.
* FirstNameBasis: He and Bond call each other by their given names.
* SecondEpisodeIntroduction: He was introduced in Brosnan's second film.
* TheStoic: He is always calm and controlled.
* TallDarkAndHandsome: Very much so, to the point where many fans of the Brosnan era and Creator/PierceBrosnan himself supported Colin Salmon as a possible replacement for Brosnan after the latter was let go from the franchise, alas, it didn't come to pass.
* TokenMinority: He was the only notable non-white employee at MI6 during the Brosnan era.

->'''Played by:''' Creator/WalterGotell
The head of the KGB in ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'', ''Film/{{Moonraker}}'', ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly'', ''Film/{{Octopussy}}'', and ''Film/AViewToAKill''.

* DaChief: On the Soviet side.
* FriendlyEnemy: He shows this relationship with M in ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'', to Bond and Amasova's bewilderment.
* GeneralRipper: Averted. In ''Film/{{Octopussy}}'' Gogol wants to avoid going to war with the West, insisting that "world socialism will be achieved peacefully."
* GracefulLoser: Subverted in ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly''. He takes Bond destroying the MacGuffin astoundingly well... but then again, it was a piece of British technology that he was on his way to steal, so the British ended up losing overall.
--> '''Bond''': That's detente, comrade. I don't have it... you don't have it.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Almost all of his appereances have him supporting Bond and the [=MI6=].
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With [=MI6=] in ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe''.

* YouLookFamiliar: Walter Gotell previously played SPECTRE mook Morzeny in ''Film/FromRussiaWithLove''.
* YourCheatingHeart: He is almost always fooling around with his secretary. In tie-in material, it is stated that he has a wife.
[[folder:Mr. White]]
!!Mr. White
[[caption-width-right:290:''"The first thing you should know about is that we have people everywhere."'']]
->'''Played by:''' Jesper Christensen
A high-level Quantum operative who appears in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'', ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'', and ''Film/{{Spectre}}''. He was in charge of Le Chiffre's financial operations in ''Casino Royale'' before killing Le Chiffre due to his uselessness. Bond captures him at the end of the movie and attempts to bring him to justice in ''Quantum of Solace'', only for him to escape. By the time we see him again in ''Spectre'', he's grown to resent his own organization, and finds himself at the mercy of both SPECTRE and Bond.
* BadassInANiceSuit: He wears a nice suit in all of his scenes.
* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: [[spoiler: Confident his daughter will be safe with Bond, White takes his own life to deny Blofeld the satisfaction]].
* BigBad: Le Chiffre's contact in Quantum and the reason he sets up the poker game in Montenegro to begin with. At first he seems to be a [[GreaterScopeVillain background threat]] but he controls Le Chiffre and after the man's failure he [[spoiler:kills Le Chiffre himself and directly drives the plot himself by taking charge of getting the terrorist money back himself]].
* TheChessmaster: The SMS in Vesper's phone indicates that he had a hand in her extortion.
* DeadpanSnarker:
--> '''White:''' I guess Tosca isn't for everyone.
* DiabolicalMastermind: He's an even higher operative within Quantum than Le Chiffre, who's himself already an example of this.
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler: In ''Film/{{Spectre}}'', he kills himself by firing his gun at the jaw from point blank range.]].
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Despite their estrangement, he still deeply cares for his daughter and gives Bond intel on SPECTRE in return for Bond promising to protect her.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: He had a falling out with SPECTRE over their involvement in human trafficking of children.
* GenreSavvy: Chooses to not stand up and leave the performance of ''Tosca'' once Bond uncovers his network.
* GreaterScopeVillain: In ''Casino Royale'' and ''Quantum of Solace''.
* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler: [[KarmaHoudiniWarranty Averted]], as Bond captures him thanks to Vesper's last SMS.]]
* ManipulativeBastard: He was the one in charge of blackmailing Vesper Lynd.
* TheManBehindTheMan: He was the man behind Le Chiffre's acts in ''Casino Royale'' and some of the events that unfold in ''Quantum of Solace''.
* NebulousEvilOrganization: Quantum, the criminal organization of which he's the liaison with Le Chiffre. [[spoiler: It's eventually revealed that Quantum is just one branch of SPECTRE]].
* NonActionBigBad: Le Chiffre is TheHeavy and Mr. White is content to sit back while his subordinate attempts to recover his losses [[spoiler:until he becomes fed up with Le Chiffre's incompetence and begins focusing on Bond himself]].
* OnlyKnownByHisNickname: Like a lot of the bad guys in here, we never find out his real name.
* PreMortemOneLiner: Before shooting [[spoiler: Le Chiffre in the head]].
--> '''Mr. White:''' [[spoiler: Money isn't as valuable to our organization as knowing who to trust. ''*BANG*'']]
* PunkInTheTrunk: At the beginning of ''Quantum of Solace''.
* SoftSpokenSadist: The only time where he raises his voice is when [[spoiler: he screams after he's shot in the leg by Bond]].
* VillainousRescue: [[spoiler: Saves Bond's and Vesper's life when they are tortured by Le Chiffre.]]
* WickedCultured: He loves opera.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: In ''Film/{{Spectre}}'', we find that [[spoiler: following his failures with Le Chiffre and Greene, as well as his [[EvenEvilHasStandards objection to SPECTRE's entry into the child sex trade]], Blofeld has declared him a liability and had him poisoned. He hangs on long enough, apparently through sheer force of will, to [[WorthyOpponent entrust his daughter's safety to Bond]] before [[BetterToDieThanBeKilled ending his life on his own terms]]]].
