Sir Hugo Drax is a fictional character created by author Ian Fleming for the 1955 James Bond novel Moonraker.[1] For the later film and its novelization, Drax was greatly altered from the novel by screenwriter Christopher Wood. In the film, Drax is portrayed by English/French actor Michael Lonsdale.[1] In both the novel and film, Drax is the main antagonist.[2]
