Six actors, 25 films and six decades: that is Eon Productions’ James Bond series so far, and for the first time since 2021 the question of what comes next has real answers. Amazon MGM Studios took creative control of the franchise in March 2025, through a joint venture with Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, who remain co-owners. A director and a writer are in place; a new Bond is not. Before that announcement lands, here is every official film in release order, the two that sit outside the canon, and where to stream them.

A note on order. Release order is the only order the official series supports: until 2006, each film stood largely on its own, so newcomers can dip in by actor without losing the thread. The Craig era is the exception. Its five films tell one continuous story and should be watched in sequence. The official franchise site, 007.com, now carries the Amazon MGM Studios name alongside the Eon library.

Sean Connery and George Lazenby

Dr. No (1962). Where it all starts: Connery’s first outing, and the template of gadgets, villains and exotic locations that every later entry adjusts rather than replaces.

From Russia With Love (1963). A Cold War thriller first and a spectacle second.

Goldfinger (1964). The film that fixed the formula in place, and our pick if time allows only one Connery.

Thunderball (1965). Bond goes underwater, at length, on a scale the series had not tried before.

You Only Live Twice (1967). Connery’s fifth film in six years, set largely in Japan.

On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969). George Lazenby’s only appearance as 007.

Diamonds Are Forever (1971). Connery returns for a final Eon outing.

Roger Moore

Live and Let Die (1973). Moore’s debut, and the start of the longest tenure: seven films in 12 years.

The Man with the Golden Gun (1974). A duel with a hired assassin who charges a million a shot.

The Spy Who Loved Me (1977). Bond partners with a Soviet agent.

Moonraker (1979). Bond goes into orbit.

For Your Eyes Only (1981). A deliberate step back to earth and to espionage.

Octopussy (1983). India, a Fabergé egg and a circus.

A View to a Kill (1985). Moore’s seventh and last.

Timothy Dalton

The Living Daylights (1987). Timothy Dalton takes over for the 15th film.

Licence to Kill (1989). A personal revenge story, and Dalton’s second and final film.

Pierce Brosnan

GoldenEye (1995). A six-year gap, a new actor and a post-Cold War world.

Tomorrow Never Dies (1997). A media baron manufactures the news he sells.

The World Is Not Enough (1999). An oil heiress, a pipeline and a terrorist.

Die Another Day (2002). The 20th Eon film and Brosnan’s fourth.

Daniel Craig

Casino Royale (2006). A reboot that starts Bond’s career over, and the beginning of the only run with a continuing story.

Quantum of Solace (2008). Picks up minutes after Casino Royale ends.

Skyfall (2012). M’s past comes back for her, and the series looks hard at its own age.

Spectre (2015). The organisation behind Craig’s previous films steps out of the shadows.

No Time to Die (2021). Craig’s fifth and final film, and the most recent Bond to date.

The two outliers

Two feature films carry the Bond name without being part of Eon’s official 25: the 1967 Casino Royale and Never Say Never Again (1983). Both have Prime Video listings in some markets, but availability varies; check local listings.

What comes next

Denis Villeneuve, the French-Canadian director of Dune and Blade Runner 2049, will direct the next film, announced in June 2025. “I’m a die-hard Bond fan. To me, he’s sacred territory,” he said at the time. Steven Knight, the creator of Peaky Blinders, is writing the script. Amy Pascal and David Heyman produce, with Tanya Lapointe as executive producer. As of Amazon’s latest update in May 2026, “the search for the next James Bond is underway”; no actor, title or release date has been announced.
