Of course he did, funny how Idris Elba is british when there's an article about him being the first "African" on the cover of British Vogue but he's not British enough when Bond is mentioned............

I've always felt that Gerard would've made a terrific James Bond. I love his performances in 300 and Law Abiding Citizen. Shame his Hollywood career never fully took off.

I just want someone that will make me want to watch Bond, I like the movies, but can’t stand Daniel Craig, Idris would literally be perfect.

Imagine that specimen coming out of the sea

There's absolutely no racial undertone to this, I just think casting a black man in the part would be wrong. Like Shaft being cast as a white man.

Again, Shaft is a black character in a blaxspoitation film series. Being portrayed by a black man is integral to his character. James Bond's race, nationality or even hair colour has never been integral to his character. He was originally english until Fleming retconned him to being scottish which allowed the character be open to re-interpretation.

You can't compare the two characters unless you ignore a whole bunch of **** to force the comparison to work. As long as James Bond is male and British, the rest is up for interpretation.

Dezzy has pretty much answered but to add, these worlds are not real. The creators are not going for maximum reality in these adventures so I have no problems with either character being any race.

There was a big fuss over John Boyega playing a black Stormtrooper and over Gwendolyn Chrtistie playing a female Stormtrooper in the recent Star Wars series but the films went thru and the fans got over it.

The next Bond should be James McAvoy obviously.

Good on Mr and Mrs Elba though!
