What's left behind the scenes

  • Following the Falklands War between the United Kingdom and Argentina in 1982, three American-made UH-1 helicopters came into British hands. One of these three helicopters appears in the film as a medevac. Its registration number is G-HUEY, and it participated in airshows.
  • Sean Bean, Sam Neill, and Mel Gibson auditioned for the role of James Bond.
  • Timothy Dalton was initially considered for the role of James Bond in the late 1960s, when Sean Connery (1930-2020) left the franchise after filming Lewis Gilbert’s (1920-2018) 'You Only Live Twice' (1967). Albert R. Broccoli (1909-1996) tested Dalton for the role of Bond in Peter R. Hunt’s (1925-2002) 'On Her Majesty’s Secret Service' (1969), but the actor declined, feeling he was too young for the part. He was also offered the role in Guy Hamilton’s (1922-2016) 'Diamonds Are Forever' (1971), but Dalton refused for the same reason. While it was still uncertain whether Roger Moore (1927-2017) would play agent 007 in 'For Your Eyes Only' (John Glen, 1981), Dalton was again a frontrunner, but the script wasn’t even ready at that point, and Dalton turned down the offer. Dalton was then offered the role of James Bond in John Glen’s 1983 film 'Octopussy' and 1985 film 'A View to a Kill', but the actor was committed to other projects.
  • Initially, it was planned for a stuntman to play the Russian assassin on Gibraltar in the opening film, but John Glen decided an actor would be better suited for the role. Carl Rigg was chosen. Rigg was unemployed at the time and caring for a newborn baby while his wife was away on business. He received a phone call, entrusted the baby to the care of neighbors, left a note for his wife, and boarded the first plane to Gibraltar.
  • Frederick Warder and Glynn Baker were deliberately cast as agents 004 and 002 due to their resemblance to George Lazenby and Roger Moore, respectively. The scriptwriters wanted to mislead the audience and make them guess which of the 00 agents was actually Bond.
