There can only be one Bond. James Bond. However, through the years there have been many spoofs of the Bond franchise that have given this famous character a new spin. Letโs take a look:
Johnny English
Itโs Mr Bean meets James Bond in this hilarious send-up. Rowan Atkinson plays a notoriously incompetentย spy that has to save the crown jewels of England. Armed with super Bond-like gadgets but no skills, Johnny is a recipe for disaster.
Austin Powers Franchise
Mike Myers brings multiple crazy Bond characters to life in this comical parody. Austin Powers gets his Bond groove on while trying to save the world from the clutches of Dr Evil. Big cameos, big titles and big giggles are what this movie franchise is all about.
Spy
A female version of Bond, Melissa McCarthy does her best as CIA desk employee turned overnight international spy. She embarks on a mission to Rome, not quite equipped like Bond, but with humorous results.
Get Smart
There are major laughs as Steve Carrell goes undercover as a super spy for the U.S government. The bumbling agent becomes unreasonably self-confident as he puts his best Bond moves into full force.
Casino Royale (1967)
Peter Sellers and an ensemble cast bring a truly humorous spin to the James Bond character in the funniest Bond parody of all time. These spies are armed and dangerously funny.ย
