Timothy Dalton's First James Bond Movie Was Almost A Prequel To Sean Connery's Dr. No, Breaking 007's Timeline

Before developing The Living Daylights as Timothy Dalton’s James Bond debut, Eon almost made Dalton’s first Bond movie as a prequel to Dr. No that would fill in 007’s origin story. Every Bond movie goes through a few different iterations before Eon arrives at the final product. They always go through several script drafts and they’ll sometimes develop multiple scripts that go unproduced. But there are even more iterations than usual when the producers are rebooting the series with a new Bond actor.
