David Hedison(1927-2019)

Along with Jeffrey Wright, he is one of only two actors to play Felix Leiter in more than one "James Bond" film: Vivre et laisser mourir (1973) and Permis de tuer (1989). Wright played the role in three films: Casino Royale (2006), 007 Quantum (2008) and Mourir peut attendre (2021).

When I go back to theater I feel good about myself. When I do films or TV, it's to make a little bread to pay my mortgage or whatever and when I've made the money I do theater again. And when I get a part I like, a part I can work on, that satisfies me. I feed good about myself. Most of the time I don't even watch what I do on TV. I go in, get the job done, and just know it's nothing. It's a job. Sometimes, I try something different and I'll watch out of curiosity. Generally, I don't watch too much of what I do. Movies are basically the same, except it's more money spent on sets.
