Sean Connery, the Scottish-born actor who was the first to utter the famous movie line, ¡°the name¡¯s Bond, James Bond,¡± has died. He was 90.
His death was confirmed by his family, the BBC reported. Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon called him ¡°first and foremost, a patriotic and proud Scot.¡±
Though he made more than 60 films, winning an Academy Award for his supporting role as an incorruptible lawman on the trail of Al Capone in ¡°The Untouchables¡± (1987), Connery was most closely affiliated with the debonair fictional British spy he portrayed seven times.
