British actor Daniel Craig is recorded as the most expensive actor in the history of James Bond films.

Sir Sean Connery, the first James Bond actor in 1962 produced only 10 thousand pounds in the movie 'Dr. No'.
The pay is rising by an average paid 218 thousand pounds per one film, but he could only produce 3 million pounds, it is equivalent to the amount of money at the moment.
Meanwhile, George Lazenby produced 340 thousand pounds or the equivalent of 460 thousand £ today just by acting as Bond 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service'.
Then, the artist Sir Roger Moore took home 1.4 million pounds, or about 6.3 million pounds today by playing in seven Bond films.
Timothy Dalton also received 1.4 million pounds from the second film while Pierce Brosnan only paid 6.1 million pounds, or approximately £ 8.7 million currency today.
Contract Daniel is currently about £ 9.6 million pounds per movie.
