May 8, 1963 –
The first James Bond film, Dr. No, starring Sean Connery as the MI6 agent 007, premiered in US on this date.
Contrary to popular belief, Sean Connery was not wearing a hairpiece in his first two outings as James Bond. Although he was already balding by the time Dr. No was in production, he still had a decent amount of hair and the filmmakers used varying techniques to make the most of what was left. By the time of Goldfinger, Connery’s hair was too thin and so various toupees were used for his last Bond outings.
