By the late 1960s, Sean Connery was the biggest star in the world thanks to James Bond. But behind the scenes, he grew frustrated with how the studios treated him-controlling his image, underpaying him, and refusing creative input. After You Only Live Twice (1967), he made a shocking decision: He quit the Bond franchise at the height of his fame. Everyone thought ho was crazy. He later said: "I am not a product. I am an actor." Connery rebuilt his career on his own terms eventually winning an Oscar for The Untouchables (1987). That moment didn't end his career - It gave him back his life.
