Publisher HarperCollins has signed a deal with Sean Connery for his autobiography. The former James Bond's memoirs are due in the second half of 2006. The agreement was reportedly worth six figures.

The legendary Scot said in a statement, "Having always vowed never to write my autobiography, here I am standing on the runway awaiting my journey into a new space. It's rather scary, but utterly exhilarating, and I'm looking forward to it."
