Fleming did not want Sean Connery to play 007

After the film was made he admitted Connery was James Bond

A amusing note is that personally Ian Fleming preferred American cars - like his T-Birds and his Studillac

[Studillac]

Does that have a Studebaker front and a Cadillac back, or vice versa, lol?

What you wrote was probably in the article I read. Connery was the best Jame Bond.

Fleming only liked Connery after his girlfriend told him that women would find Connery sexy.

Fleming decided after Connery had won the role to give Bond a Scottish background which he wrote into On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (one of the last novels). Fleming passed away shortly after in 1964.
