  • Moonraker is a 1982 American film and the 12th entry into the James Bond series, based on the 1960 novel of the same name. The film starred James Brolin in his first of three films as James Bond, as well as Sarah Laurent, Roger Moore, Patrick Macnee, John Mackay, Julia Hazelwood, Jack Lemmon, Donnie Delorria, Richard Kiel, and Sal Caparza in his first film role. The film follows Bond as he travels to England to investigate the mysterious Hugo Drax, an English billionaire industrialist building a first-response missile for the English government to help achieve the long-held English dream of a unilateral removal of American weapons from their soil. Moonraker was intended to be converted to a film by Bond creator __ since before he finished the novel, as he was writing the novel at the height of the Bomb Scare in late 1959. While it had originally been intended as the second film for George Lazenby in 1972, the film was postponed by ten years until a script that pleased everyone was agreed upon. Moonraker wound up with the highest gross of any Bond film up to that point, and due to its relatively low production costs, it reigned in the highest total profit of any Bond film until then, and was the highest-grossing film of 1982. Moonraker's box office success would overshadow the series until GoldenEye was released thirteen years later. This was the second adaptation of Moonraker - the novel was made into a radio play in 1974 with the voice talents of Grant Kerouac and Peter Cushing. English Radio, which produced the play, sold the rights to the novel back to Pacific Print in 1979. The film was the first of the so-called "Brolin/Alten" trilogy, which paired director Bryan Alten with Brolin for three straight films and had a loose continuity.
