Idris Elba the next James Bond?

Fassbender would be a badass Bond to be fair.

I don't think race should be a factor. Nationality is though. Bond has to be British. An American Bond would be sacrilegious.

I thought elba was british? Pierce Brosnan is still one of my favs, Sean Connery is the best though.

He's from London, so whats the big deal?

Yeah Elba is British. I just meant I wouldn't rule out any British actor, no matter what their ethnicity. But I would say no to any American actor.

Pierce Brosnan played the role of 007 perfectly, but unfortunately he was only ever in one good Bond movie. Goldeneye is one of my favourite Bond films, but every other Brosnan lead Bond movie was utter shite.

Idris IS British. Now what disqualifies him from playing Bond?

........he's black. James Bonds parents were Scottish and Swedish. They died in a hiking accident in trying to scale the north-east ridge of the Aiguille de la Persévérance. I don't think anyone wants some self entitled director to have an "inspiration" and rewrite the frame work that Ian Fleming has already perfected. But I could be wrong. Maybe people want that.

It would make more since to make Elba a 00 agent in the bond universe. HeII maybe even make a few spin offs.

So now his parents from Scotland and Sweden are black, it really doesn't put too many holes in the story.

So you're saying there are NO Blacks in Scotland, and Sweden?

Statistics Sweden data show that the African-born population has grown from 4,149 in 1970 to 10,025 in 1980, 27,343 in 1990, 55,138 in 2000 and 103,077 in 2009.

That takes care of Sweden.

This role in slavery led to the first significant documented Black population in Scotland, as slave owners brought ****** back to serve as household servants. In some cases, ****** were freed through manumission.

That takes of Scotland. Next?
