The 1967 film Casino Royale had Sellers in the illustrious role. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casino_Royale_(1967_film)
He played a spy-wannabe in Casino Royale (1967), his character was called Jimmy Bond. Others who portrayed Bond in the film include Peter Sellers and David Niven.
The character of James Bond was portrayed by David Nivenin the 1967 parody film Casino Royale. However, given the convoluted plot, Peter Sellers and everyone else in the film also become James Bond.
Peter contributed to Casino Royale as the character Evelyn Tremble but Geoffrey Rush's portrayal implicates (rejected) attempts by Sellers to treat the Bond role more seriously. One wonders what path Sellers career might have taken had the Bond producers taken his attempts seriously, but it seems that their target was the fine spoof that resulted in any case. It's also worth noting the degree at which the more recent version went to (seriously) follow the detail in this original. Shaken or Stirred 007 never looked better saving us all from the world's tourists. - A.Belz
