Vargas
Philip Locke as Vargas in ‘Thunderball’.

Vargas is a villain and assassin in the 1965 James Bond film Thunderball. He is an assassin of SPECTRE and a personal henchman of Emilio Largo. The character is portrayed by Philip Locke.

According to Largo, Vargas does not drink, smoke, or make love; abstinence which emphasises his devotion as a killer. Those characteristics were used by Ian Fleming to describe the whole Disco Volante crew, but the filmmakers reduced to only one character because it would be “many men doing nothing”.

He is killed by James Bond on a beach with a speargun in the chest after trying to kill Bond and Dominique Derval while lurking in the palm trees, with Bond coolly remarking “I think he got the point”.
