The superspy from Ian Fleming's books first hit screens in the 1962 film "Dr. No," with Sean Connery in the lead role, and the other stars to officially play the iconic character in the franchise are Roger Moore, George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and current Bond Daniel Craig.
The party will take place following the premiere of the latest 007 film, "Skyfall," in October and will also include many of the actresses who have played Bond girls over the years, including Ursula Andress and Eva Green.
A statement from the MGM movie studio reveals the party will be the climax of a "whole year of birthday celebrations for 007 in the movies," while Daniel Craig says, "It's an astonishing record for any character to endure for five decades in showbiz, but I'll bet this: The franchise is such a phenomenon that in another 50 years' time a whole new bunch of actors and their leading ladies will be gathering for another party when Bond becomes a centenarian."
