With the release of The November Man this week, Pierce Brosnan returns to a genre he does particularly well - espionage. Between the James Bond franchise and films like The Tailor of Panama, Brosnan has a knack for playing suave men of action caught up in games of intrigue and murder.
To celebrate Brosnan's return, we're taking a look at his best espionage movies. To be clear, this isn't a list of Brosnan's best action movies in general. We left off films like Matador (where he played a hit man), Live Wire (where he played an FBI agent), and Remington Steele (which isn't a film at all). This list is dedicated solely to those films where espionage is the name of the game.
Die Another Day is the 20th entry in the James Bond franchise. It was also Brosnan's last go at playing Agent 007. By this point, Bond mania was waning again as newer, flashier spy movies like xXx were hitting the scene. MGM faced an uphill battle in trying to revamp Bond again and allow a 40-year-old franchise to keep pace with the new kids on the block.
