After impressing audiences with his performance in On Her Majesty's Secret Service, George Lazenby decided not to return to the role that changed his world, and now he explains why to me in an exclusive interview.

Shane Hess he did bullshit his way into meeting Producers Albert Broccoli and Harry Saltzman and told them he had experience as an actor and later said he never acted before besides doing commercials. They liked how showed himself and said that was acting when said he never did any of the things he had told producers including taking acting classes which never did.

For me, James Bond will always be the one and only George Lazenby (On Her Majesty's Secret Service - 1969). When I was "Bunny Deana" at the London Playboy Club, in the 60s and 70s, I was privileged to have been crowned Playboy Bunny of The Year by George, and I shall treasure the memory forever. The very precious (to me at least) photo of George performing the crowning, immaculately dressed in his beautiful Bond-style suit, is a proud part of my unique, personal Bunny Deana's Playboy Photo Album, available online.

On Her Majesty's Secret Service was one of the best Bond films. Ironically, it was panned when it was released. According to Diana Rigg, Lazenby was a complete jerk during the filming of the movie. He expected the full star treatment because her was not used to being a celebrity. He has admitted this himself on interviews.

jeffrey a he was difficult to work with on set and even Producers Harry Saltzman and Albert Broccoli couldn’t stand his behavior and thought he was too cocky as thought carried himself as big star. Director Peter Hunt didn’t like Lazenby and they had a difficult working relationship on set as well to the point of Hunt of not working with Lazenby on training him as an actor for the role during filming or not giving him advice. Lazenby’s cockiness annoyed Broccoli and didn’t like his arrogance. Lazenby told his agent he didn’t know if wanted to play anymore and that didn’t make producers happy when found out he was planning to leave the role

Sean, for me, was always the man. I walked in his footsteps - I had to look and dress like Sean Connery - I went to his barber's and tailors. I had no fear when I went up for the role - he was the guy who inspired me to never hesitate. Another thing we have in common is that we're both family men, so best wishes to Lady Connery, your kids and grand kids and stay safe. Love George x

Donald Pleasance, as much of a phenomenal actor as he was, his take on Blofeld was just bizarre. Telly Savalas' Blofeld was a megalomaniac who was really concerned about the bigger picture and had a really crafty evil scheme. And the small elements in his acting, like the way he held his cigarette or stopped in the middle of some of his sentences only to prolong the vowel in another word to emphasize the point he was making really made the character complete. Christoph Waltz was godawful as Blofeld imo, even Charles Gray was better. I've always rooted for Ben Kingsley to be Blofeld. He would have nailed it.

Living that kind of lifestyle can overwhelming. Having to do all those interviews and tours, the vices involved, being controlled by the studio. I get why he walked away to some extent, but I think if he had been cooler headed, a compromise with Broccoli could've been reached for Diamonds Are Forever and maybe another sequel. For people who wanted to bash him and consider him an afterthought, he does deserve it. It was like winning a multi-million dollar lottery then setting all the money on fire.

In this film (the most difficult) producers and director must not give Bond's role to a non-actor, hoping he will do it. O.H.M.S.S. was shot as in the book, and Bond is an experienced man in the book as well as in the sixth film. Look at the actors in the other roles. All experienced and professionals. Producers and director must adapt the film to Lazenby, or to help him (in the original script, Bond undergoes plastic surgery to disguise him from his enemies, and to allow an unrecognisable Bond to infiltrate Blofeld's hideout, and help the audience accept the new actor in the role. Wikipedia). Until now the producers - with a more conventional Bond films - did not provide the role of Bond in a model that is no actor and is completely novice.

Keven Klayne George Lazenby was originally offered a 7 picture deal that would have netted him a lot of money and probably have gone on to be a great James Bond had he stayed on at least for a few more times. He turned down to star as Bond again and resigned as Bond during production of On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. He was supposed to Star in Diamonds Are Forever and would have been a darker Bond film it was going have Lazenby back avenging the death of his wife Tracy. Telly Salavas would have been back as Blofeld and Illse Steppat as the hench woman Irma Bunt with Bond killing them off in the movie. That all changed with Lazenby quit the role and actress Illse Steppat died after production ended for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service in 1969 of a heart attack

@@scottknode898 If Lazenby was to be brutally honest with himself; the opportunity as a completely unknown offered to play James Bond made him lose all reasonable sense and purpose. He wanted it all now! Wanted to party 24/7 all the women fame money without giving back the responsibilities the role came with. Such as refusing to cut his hair shave beard as he wanted to look like a mod. He certainly could have re-invented himself had he put in the work ethic. I think arrogance was his biggest downfall...sadly. He could have rivaled Sean as the next best Bond.

I concur with many of the pro-Lazenby/OHMSS comments on this thread. I think he made an excellent Bond. He was an great physical actor, his fight sequences were excellent and he looked like he could handle himself. The film itself is grossly underrated I think too. It's one of the very best in my humble opinion. Far better than the contemporary Craig films on so many levels. Lazenby's Bond displayed wit and humour, which made him likeable. Craig is a cold fish, devoid of any warmth or humour.

Interesting that here he claimed he had no regrets leaving the role of Bond. At other times he’s said it was a mistake. Clearly he’s of two minds concerning James Bond. Given time, he could’ve made the role his own, but bad advise and his desire to fit into the counter culture made it impossible. Still, he’s maintained a somewhat below-the-radar career for all these years, which is admirable considering he seems to have disdain for the entire acting profession…

They should have cast George Lazenby in For Your Eyes Only. In the opening sequence of this great film James Bond visits his wife's grave and poignantly places flowers on her grave. This would have been a great reintroduction for George Lazenby and would have worked as a sequel to On Her Majesty's Secret Service. I feel that For Your Eyes Only is a classic Bond film and one of the best but it had the misfortune to go up against Raiders Of The Lost Ark and came off second best.

OHMSS was the best film of the franchise. I don't know if it had been that good with Sean Connery. Incidentally, Connery (IMHO the best Bond) never played James Bond in any film with action in a snowy setting. With Connery it was always sun and/or tropics, I can't really imagine him performing ski stunts or any bobsled action.

Definitely one of the best Bond films. A great performance by George. Great direction by Peter Hunt and wonderful song 'All The Time In The World" by Louis Armstrong (his last). Connery should have done OHMSS as his swan song and Lazenby should have done Diamonds are Forever and Live and Let Die.

Lazenby is a relatively young, vulnerable and infinite Bond like ''Casino Royale'' without the final scene. Bond in O.H.M.S.S. in the book, in the sixth film and like the actors in the other roles, is a mature man with experience. Director Peter Hunt did a great job, but the direction is like a romantic movie, not a Bond film. Also i can't ignore that Bond and Blofeld have met in the previous film, and in this film doesn't know each other. As you say Connery should have done O.H.M.S.S. After him i believe in Stanley Baker. ''Diamonds are Forever'' would be a revenge film, if Connery was playing at O.H.M.S.S. or Lazenby at D.A.F. (now is a follow-up of ''You Only Live Twice''). In the era of comedy and parody Roger Moore was the right man at the right time (except ''A View to a Kill''). I can imagine Connery in ''Live and Let Die'' (the producers had wanted Connery to return after D.A.F. Wikipedia), if the film was made in 1972 to celebrate the ten years of the first Bond film.

@@user-xp2gm8im2c Wow. You hit the nail on the head. I've always thought that Stanley Baker would have made an excellent Bond. (Interestingly, it was Stanley who cast Connery in his production of 'Hell Drivers'). But another keen observation you made is, Lazenby does remind one of the James Bond from the novel, 'Casino Royale'.

"This never happened to the other fellow" lends credence to the theory that James Bond is a codename handed down to each 007 and each Bond is in fact a different person. While all of them are still with us, they should do a special feature with all of them meeting up just for fun.

+Lord Funface The Atomic Toaster That is exactly what I was thinking, that James Bond was just a fake name for the 007 agents. I think it would be a fun and yet moving thing for a movie to be made with all the James Bonds and they are giving advice to a new agent on how to do/or not do the job and maybe even say something about the death of Tracy that occurred with the one who got married.

You just don't like the act of Roger Moore, but there are enough people who liked him whit that. So he just is another kind of Bond. It shouldn't be good when every Bond acted the same. You can't say Lazenby IS better, but you THINK Lazenby is better than Moore.

LeMeir No sir. I KNOW that Lazenby was a better 007 than Moore. Not taking anything away from Mister Moore. He was a wonderful actor, just not the caliber to be Bond. 007 was never written to be a "Fop" until Moore took over the role.

@eddiescanduratrains 9 жыл бұрын
Yes, Especially since Lazenby was a new-comer to the acting universe, at the same time, Roger Moore starred in "The Saint", an espionage tv show in the 60s, so Moore had a better idea of what espionage brings to the table for an actor.
