Iconic JAMES BOND Actor Roger Moore Dead At 89
The most prolific actor in the James Bond series, Roger Moore, has passed away at 89 following a short battle with cancer. Moore's family issued a statement to fans regarding his death:

Moore holds the record for the most James Bond films by any actor (7), and starred in some of the franchise's most iconic features. The actor would play James Bond from 1972 to 1985. Of course, Moore would celebrate a career beyond the world of James Bond, but this is the role many associate him with.
Our thoughts go out to the family of Moore, and we wish them well at this hard time.
