James Bond 007: From Russia with Love attacks him in the second. The game ends with a final assault on OCTOPUS headquarters, during which Grant is fatally shot by Bond. Many of the cast from the film version of "From Russia with Love" return in likeness. Sean Connery, the first actor to portray James Bond in the Eon Productions film series, returned to the role for the first time in 22 years since the unofficial 1983 remake of "Thunderball", "Never Say Never Again". Connery allowed for his likeness of Bond to be used (appropriately from the 1963 film), and also recorded new voice work for the character
Sean Connery to abandon the pool immediately. In 2005, "From Russia with Love" was adapted by Electronic Arts into a video game, titled "", which featured all-new voice work by Connery, recorded by Terry Manning in The Bahamas, as well as his likeness, and those of several of the film's supporting cast. Although Bond had made him a star, Connery eventually grew tired of the role and the pressure the franchise put on him, saying "[I am] fed up to here with the whole Bond bit" and "I have always hated that damned James Bond. I'd like to kill him". Michael Caine
