Sean Connery born in Fountainbridge, Edinburgh, Scotland on 25 August 1930. His mother, Euphemia McBain "Effie" (née McLean), was a cleaning woman, and his father, Joseph Connery, was a factory worker and lorry driver. His paternal grandfather's parents emigrated to Scotland from Ireland in the mid-19th century. The remainder of his family was of Scottish descent, and his maternal great-grandparents were native Scottish Gaelic speakers from Fife (unusually, for a speaker of the language), and Uig on the Isle of Skye. His father was a Roman Catholic, and his mother was a Protestant. He has a younger brother, Neil. Connery has said
Sean Connery to abandon the pool immediately. In 2005, "From Russia with Love" was adapted by Electronic Arts into a video game, titled "", which featured all-new voice work by Connery, recorded by Terry Manning in The Bahamas, as well as his likeness, and those of several of the film's supporting cast. Although Bond had made him a star, Connery eventually grew tired of the role and the pressure the franchise put on him, saying "[I am] fed up to here with the whole Bond bit" and "I have always hated that damned James Bond. I'd like to kill him". Michael Caine
