Arnold Williams as Cab Driver in ‘Live and Let Die’.

The Cab Driver is the driver who helps Bond to tail Solitaire and Dr Kananga’s men to Kananga’s Fillet of Soul restaurant in New York City. He is overly cheerful and likes to mess with his passengers’ minds. After Bond departs into the Fillet of Soul, the Cab Driver is revealed to be a Kananga agent, who informs the restaurant crew about Bond’s arrival. Bond is later captured but soon escapes.

After Bond and Solitaire arrive in New Orleans from San Monique, they are driven around town by the same Cab Driver, who traps them in his car and drives them to Kananga’s men at a nearby airfield. He then amusingly informs Bond that they intend to send him “skydiving”. Bond once again escapes and the Cab Driver is not seen again.
