Biography

  A suave, handsome, unflappable star, Roger Moore specialized in lightweight film and TV material, bringing a classy, mildly roguish, tongue-in-cheek approach to a series of romantic adventurers. He played a bit part or two in Britain before coming to Hollywood, where he played leads in a handful of films in the 1950s, mostly notably "Diane" (1956), a handsome, enjoyable period drama starring Lana Turner. It was really in TV, though, that Moore would first make his mark. First he portrayed "Ivanhoe" in a syndicated series in 1957, and then he played Silky Harris, a fast-talking swindler, on "The Alaskans" (1959-60). When James Garner left the hit series "Maverick", Moore stepped in for a season (1960-61) as Bret Maverick's cousin Beau.

Moore enjoyed his greatest success on U.S. series TV later in the 60s, though, when he played dapper detective Simon Templar on the TV series, "The Saint" (1966-69) and teamed with Tony Curtis for more adventures as part of "The Persuaders" (1971-72). His career buoyed by his work in these series, Moore rebounded into cinema in the early 70s, not having made a feature for nine years. He achieved international celebrity in 1973 when he again essayed replacement work--he became a highly successful successor to Sean Connery in "Live and Let Die", the first of seven "James Bond" films he would make into the mid-80s. Moore's last Bond effort was "A View to a Kill" (1985). His career was very much as a dashing leading man rather than a character star and he subsequently made only occasional appearances on film and TV. His most high profile turn was as the roguish villain in Jean-Claude Van Damme's "The Quest" (1996).
