- He studied under Yat Malmgren, a dancer and drama teacher who also worked with Sean Connery in the 1950s and is credited with helping him develop a strong sense of movement and presence.
- In 2001, he was voted “Sexiest Man Alive” by People magazine. – Bond, James Bond, was the Sexiest Man Alive in 2001, with Pierce Brosnan on the cover. But offscreen, the sexy Dubliner had just one thing on his mind — his family. Said costar Julianna Margulies: “When you see a gorgeous man holding hands with his wife and holding his baby, there’s nothing more sexy in the world.”
- Other Bond Actor – Who said younger is better? In 1989, when he was almost 60, Sean Connery was named the Sexiest Man Alive. His reaction? “For once, I’m speechless. It’ll all be downhill from here!”
