Fans of the James Bond film franchise (1962 to present) who recently searched for the movies on Amazon Prime Video noticed something curious: The world’s most famous licensed-to-kill spy no longer had a weapon to kill with.
In promotional artwork for Dr No (1962), the gun once held in late Scottish actor Sean Connery’s crossed arms was noticeably missing. In artwork for GoldenEye (1995), Irish actor Pierce Brosnan still held up his right arm, but with no gun in sight. And artwork for Casino Royale (2006) appeared to have been cropped to avoid showing a gun in the hands of English actor Daniel Craig.
