Description
Moonraker (1979) stands out as one of the most ambitious, sci-fi-infused chapters in the James Bond franchise. Starring Roger Moore in his fourth iconic performance as the suave MI6 agent, this spy-fi thriller kicks off when a luxury Moonraker space shuttle is mysteriously hijacked mid-air. Assigned to the case, 007 uncovers a catastrophic global conspiracy orchestrated by billionaire aerospace mogul Hugo Drax (Michael Lonsdale). To save mankind from a deadly nerve gas attack designed to repopulate Earth with a “master race,” Bond must join forces with brilliant NASA scientist and CIA operative Dr. Holly Goodhead (Lois Chiles).
From high-speed gondola chases through Venice to breathtaking skydiving stunts over Rio de Janeiro, Bond ultimately fights his way into orbit. Directed by Lewis Gilbert, the film also marks the return of the fan-favorite, steel-toothed giant Jaws (Richard Kiel) and features a sweeping score by John Barry alongside Shirley Bassey’s unforgettable theme song.
