Unnamed, the character was a bodyguard employed by the Swiss banker, Lachaise. A minor antagonist portrayed by unknown performer, he appeared briefly in the 1999 James Bond film, The World Is Not Enough, and its accompanying novelisation.
Biography[]
One of the three unnamed bodyguards who worked for the Swiss banker, Lachaise, the man is present during his meeting with British agent James Bond in November 1999.[1] The bodyguard is apparently unaware of his employer's dealings with the anarchist, Renard, nor his plan to use 007 to deliver a fertilizer bomb to oil magnate, Sir Robert King, disguised as his own money. After Bond disorientates the guards using a flashbang hidden inside his Walther P99, a short fight ensues, where the bodyguard gets knocked out by the spy. In order to escape from the office, Bond later uses a window shade cord and attaches it to the bodyguard's belt. The henchman, who was unconcious until now, wakes up and realizes what is going on: Bond, on the other end of the cord, jumps out of the window, using the henchman as a counterweight. To avoid being dragged out of the window, the man holds on to the desk, until the table leg breaks away, dragging him over the floor against the wall. When officers of the Policía Municipal Bilbao raid the room, the bodyguard immediately surrenders to them and is possibly arrested.
Alternate Continuities[]
In Raymond Benson's novelisation, 007 is met in the office building by Lachaise's three Armani-clad thugs, who are described as looking "more like professional wrestlers than bankers".[2] The narrative continues almost identically to the film.[2]
