Following the announcement that No Time To Die has been delayed for a third time, fans in Asia can always satisfy themselves with five of James Bond’s best Asian adventures.
You Only Live Twice (1967)
After faking his own death in Hong Kong and receiving a naval burial in Victoria Harbour, Bond heads to Japan in search of a pair of missing American and Soviet spacecraft.
Adapted from Ian Fleming’s novel by the author’s friend and first-time screenwriter Roald Dahl, You Only Live Twice was intended as Sean Connery’s fifth and final outing as the gentleman spy. The film sees Bond collaborate with the Japanese secret service and brings him face to face with arch-nemesis Ernst Stavro Blofeld (here played by Donald Pleasence) for the first time.
