In the wake of the 50th anniversary of the first James Bond movie, "Dr. No,” the Academy Awards will pay tribute to the iconic film series at this year’s ceremony. The "007" movies – the first of which was released in 1962 -- are part the longest-running motion picture franchise in history.
Adele will be appearing at the 2013 Oscars to perform the Best Original Song nominated “Skyfall.
It’s looking like every actor who has portrayed the classic character are set to appear on stage together for the first time ever to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of James Bond.
Rumors are swirling that all six actors who have portrayed the British spy (from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig) will show up for a big reunion on the Oscars stage. But now we're hearing that one of the Bonds might be missing in action on Hollywood's biggest night!
Bond has been played by six actors in his 50 year history: Sean Connery, George Lazenby (for one installment only), Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig, who owns the role now. Connery is the real wild card here; at 82-years-old, the actor has retired and is rarely in the public eye. But the sight of him and Craig – roundly considered the best 007 since Connery hung up his tux – together would be worth the price of admission alone, and it seems hard to imagine the producers of the Oscars would bother with a Bond celebration if the original wasn’t involved.
