Nuclear revenge

Created by former intelligence officer and author Ian Fleming in 1953, James Bond is a fearless, charismatic and deadly British Secret Service agent with a ‘licence to kill’. Also known by the codename 007, he has been portrayed by six actors – Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig – in 25 thrilling movies released by EON Productions since 1962.

In The World Is Not Enough, Bond is assigned to protect Elektra King, the duplicitous daughter of a murdered oil tycoon and MI6 confidante. The assignment sees 007 confront Renard, a villain with a bullet lodged in his brain, whose mad scheme involves revenge for his injury and a nuclear showdown aimed at monopolising oil supplies.
