George Lazenby, the Australian actor who played James Bond in the 1969 film ‘On Her Majesty’s Secret Service’, has spoken about his life after leaving the spy franchise. In a recent interview with The Guardian, Lazenby reflected on his time as Bond and how it impacted his career. Lazenby, now 82, stated that he was initially hesitant to take on the role of Bond, but ultimately decided to do so because he wanted to challenge himself as an actor. He also shared that he had no idea what he was getting himself into when he agreed to play Bond, stating ‘I didn’t know I was going to be a movie star.’ Lazenby went on to say that the experience of playing Bond has stayed with him throughout his life, and that it continues to influence his work to this day. Despite not continuing as Bond in future films, Lazenby’s performance remains iconic and is still widely praised by fans of the franchise.
