You've Outlasted Me Again, Mr. Bond!

The first "James Bond villain," Dr. No, was played by the Canadian-born actor Joseph Wiseman. Mr. Wiseman passed away Monday at his home at the age of 91. His nemesis, the suave super-spy James Bond, still lives, as do all the actors who've played him.

According to his IMDB page, Wiseman pretty much never stopped working, scoring roles in dozens of TV series, including a role on The Show That's Had Everybody, Law and Order, as well as the 1960s Show That's Had Everybody, The Twilight Zone. He also played a lot on stage, starting out there in the late 1930s and working up until 2001 on Broadway.
