There wasn't much of Moonraker set in America was there? But I take your point - I always thought it was a shame they didn't make Jack Wade in GE and TND Felix Leiter but I guess they thought it would be problematic with the whole dismemberment in LTK and they didn't introduce Leiter again until the CR reboot.
I could see him in DAD. "Hey Graves, you do any gardening in that Biodome?"
All joking aside, Leiter in Skyfall again would have been nice, even though he is now section chief of South America. I like Wright as Leiter.
Because Craig respects the Bond franchise.
I guess Yip's Chuck Lee, was a variation of Leiter, but all I remember about him was having a quite ridiculous exit at Sutton's mansion when Grace Jones appeared in the rear seats. And would Leiter even have been killed before (the reboot) ? We did come close to that in License to Kill, but even Sanchez's aim was "only" to maim Leiter, and not necessarily to kill off the character
JW Pepper was a great character, larger than life, but we simply can't have him back again. That was Clifton James part in the 1970s. It belongs to him, and wouldn't want anyone else to have it. Commonsense dictates that they won't bring the character back again above all else
