Bond producer Michael Gregg Wilson says all would-be 007s audition with ‘From Russia With Love’ bedroom scene
James Bond franchise film producer Michael Gregg Wilson revealed that one specific scene is used to test all actors aspiring to play the role of the iconic British spy. Wilson explained that would-be 007s always audition with the classic bedroom scene from the 1963 film "From Russia With Love" starring Sean Connery as Bond and Daniela Bianchi as his love interest, Tatiana Romanova. "We always use the same scene … and that’s the one in ‘From Russia With Love’ where Bond comes back to his room after the assassination, and he starts taking off his shirt, goes into the room to bathe.Then he hears something, takes his gun, goes in and the girl’s in the bed," the producer told the audience at an "In Conversation" event, according to Deadline.
