Without question, Eon Productions James Bond film series has been one of the most successful franchises in cinematic history, with 25 films produced to date, including the upcoming, long-delayed No Time to Die. The series kicked off, of course, with Dr. No in 1962, with Sean Connery playing the dashing British secret agent who goes by the code name 007. Over the years the Bond mantle has been taken up by five other actors: George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig.

The head of Britain s Secret Intelligence Service said on Thursday the spy agency is hunting a new technology chief to provide UK spooks with the sort of gadgets and gizmos
familiar to James Bond fans worldwide. We’re looking for a new ‘Q’. If you want to serve your country by helping MI6 to develop the operational technology of the future, please take a look, tweeted Richard Moore, who became head of the service in July last year.
