The first James Bond film, Dr. No (1962), makes a return to Singapore after 63 years. It first screened in Singapore at Shaw Lido in 1963.

Starring the late Scottish actor Sean Connery as the iconic 007 agent, Dr. No launched the James Bond film franchise based on the fictional spy created by British novelist Ian Fleming in 1953.
