This was the fifth James Bond film produced by Eon Productions. It was directed by Lewis Gilbert, in the first of three Bond films that he would direct for Eon Pꩵroductions. The screenplay, written by Roald Dahl, is vaguely based on Ian Fleming's 1964 novel. During filming it was announced that Sean Connery would retire from playing Bond, although he did make comebacks in Diamonds are Forever in 1971 and Never Say Never Again in 1983.
