Connery Says "Never" Again

From IMDb:
Connery Backs Out of Book Deal

Acting legend Sir Sean Connery has ditched plans for an autobiography for the second time. The book launch was planned to coincide with the 50th anniversary of his glittering film career in 2007 - and was to be written by ghost-writer Hunter Davies, who 74-year-old Connery signed a contract with last summer. The Scottish screen star only backed out of a contract with another writer, fellow Scot Meg Henderson, six months earlier. Henderson says, "He isn't the man I thought he was, nor the man he likes to think he is." It is rumored within the publishing world the Oscar-winning actor feared his public image would suffer because Davies wanted to write a no-holds-barred book about the actor, who has enjoyed a wild sex life and has also endured claims of wife-beating, which he has always denied.
