Pierce Brosnan's breakout performance as James Bond in GoldenEye (1995) revitalized the franchise. The film's blend of classic espionage and modern action resonated with audiences worldwide.
Pierce Brosnan starred in four James Bond movies, but he never topped his first and best film, GoldenEye. Released in 1995, GoldenEye was directed by Martin Campbell, and it introduced the world to Pierce Brosnan as the new James Bond . GoldenEye also starred Sean Bean as the villainous Alec Trevalyan AKA 006, Famke Janssen as Xenia Onatopp, Isabella Scorupco as Natalya Simonova, and introduced Judi Dench as the new M. GoldenEye was a box office smash, grossing $356 million worldwide.
After a 6-year interval since the previous James Bond film, 1989's License To Kill, due to a legal battle over the 007 rights between United Artists and MGM, Timothy Dalton bowed out of playing James Bond. Producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson wisely selected Pierce Brosnan as the new 007. GoldenEye plunged James Bond into a mission to stop the Janus organization, who had taken control of a Russian satellite called GoldenEye that threatened the world with an electromagnetic pulse that would cripple technology. GoldenEye proved to be a milestone, and the rebirth James Bond needed. GoldenEye Updated James Bond’s Formula For The 1990s Bond Entered The Blockbuster Movie Era GoldenEye is an ideal blend of the traditional James Bond formula mixed with 1990s blockbuster action and infused with relevant post-Cold War intrigue. Pierce Brosnan's James Bond was the right secret agent for this dangerous new era of duplicitous enemies seeking super weapons for world domination. From the thrilling bungee jump in the flashback prologue that opened GoldenEye, to 007's destructive tank chase through St. Petersburg, and GoldenEye's climatic battle atop a satellite dish in Cuba, Brosnan and GoldenEye took James Bond's action-adventure to another level
