Over the years a number of A-listers have revealed they were considered for James Bond, including Liam Neeson and Henry Cavill. Now it turns out that Adam West, who sadly died last week, was
asked to play Bond, almost beating Sir Roger to the role. Following George Lazenby’s single outing in 1969’s On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, Bond producers Harry Saltzman and Albert R
Broccoli were looking for a new actor to star in USA-set Diamonds Are Forever. West, who had starred as Batman in a TV series and movie throughout the 1960s was offered the job alongside
Burt Reynolds. Current Dark Knight, Ben Affleck, tweeted: “Adam West exemplified heroism. Kind, funny and an all around great guy. Thank you for showing us all how it's done.
@therealadamwest.” Both West and Moore were known for their dry wit and were famous for portraying the lighter, comedic and most tongue-in-cheek versions of their iconic characters.
