Outside the official 007 cannon:

“Never Say Never Again” (1983)

This movie is a remake — with some differences — of “Thunderball” with Sean Connery playing Bond. Kevin McClory, a “Thunderball” producer and co-writer, won a legal battle to make his own Bond movie and this movie was not made by MGM.

“Casino Royale” (1967)

This is a spoof of the Bond/spy films with Peter Sellers playing the agent, but has little in common with the Ian Fleming novels.
