Sean Connery, the Scottish actor whose five-decade film career was dominated by the role of James Bond, died at the age of 90, according to his publicist.
Connery, who was knighted in 2000 for his contribution to the arts, has played the British spy in seven films, starting with “Dr. No” in 1962, the first of the Bond films.
