Psychologists at two British universities have determined that Sean Connery most closely adheres to the vision author Ian Fleming had in mind when he created his British spy James Bond, according to a report in the London Telegraph.
Rob Jenkins of the University of Glasgow and Richard Wiseman of the University of Hertfordshire actually created a composite image using all of the actors that Fleming said in 1961 had the right facial structure to be his 007 hero.
The scientists used prototyping and combined photographs of Stewart Granger, Richard Burton, David Niven, Patrick McGoohan, James Mason, Rex Harrison and Cary Grant to create the face of Fleming's fictional character.
"We have used face merging technology to create the image of Bond that Ian Fleming had in mind when he wrote his books," Wiseman said. "The image shows a clean-cut, classic looking face which is far more Connery than [Daniel] Craig.
''Perhaps this is another way of resolving the question of who is the best Bond," he added more insult to injury.
Bond has been played by six: Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig.
Sean Connery won hands down in the scientific face morph and reigns still as the best Bond. It's a scientific fact!
