With Skyfall (2012) and Spectre (2015), Ralph Fiennes became the seventh major actor or actress who appeared in the "James Bond" and "The Avengers" universes, the latter being the English spy one, and not the comic super-heroes one. From this show, one actor and two actresses appeared in Bond movies: Honor Blackman played Pussy Galore in Agente 007 - Missione Goldfinger (1964), Patrick Macnee portrayed Sir Godfrey Tibbett in 007 - Bersaglio mobile (1985), and Dame Diana Rigg played "Tracy" Di Vicenzo in Agente 007 - Al servizio segreto di Sua Maestà (1969). The latter movie also featured as "The English Girl", Joanna Lumley, who appeared in Gli infallibili tre (1976), which also starred Macnee. While Nadim Sawalha appeared in The Avengers - Agenti speciali (1998), as well as two Bond movies, 007 - Zona pericolo (1987) and La spia che mi amava (1977). Fiennes appeared in The Avengers - Agenti speciali (1998) appearing with former James Bond Sir Sean Connery, who played the villain Sir August de Wynter. Of these seven actors, Fiennes and Macnee have portrayed The Avengers' character of John Steed, in the theatrical film and television series, respectively, with the latter also voicing the Invisible Jones character in The Avengers - Agenti speciali (1998). In that movie, John Steed (Ralph Fiennes) and Emma Peel (Uma Thurman) get across the frozen river by "walking" on the surface inside inflatable plastic bubbles, which is similar to how James Bond gets aboard Ernst Stavro Blofeld's (Charles Gray's) oil rig in Connery's final official series Bond movie, Agente 007 - Una cascata di diamanti (1971).
