Pierce Brosnan

In the film version of Sex and the City, Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall) break-ups with her longtime younger love, Smith Jerrod.

It seems Kim is mimicking her movie persona by breaking up with longtime boyfriend and chef Alan Wyse.

You can take the man out of the James Bond franchise, but you can't take the Bond out of the man.

Pierce Brosnan recently saved Uma Thurman's life on the set of their new film, Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief, by stopping a runaway van which was hurtling towards the actress.

Apparently Brosnan saw the unmanned vehicle rolling down a hill in Thurman's direction and jumped inside and slammed on the break before anyone was hurt. 

We hope someone had a camera rolling.

Former James Bond star Pierce Brosnan opens up to Parade about being let go from the Bond franchise, the difficulty of staying on top in Hollywood and the joys of his new life just outside the spotlight.
