The TV spy series Alias had a top female Russian spy played by black woman Gina Torres with the back story that she was trained in Cuba. It worked. But if you say its not possible then I'll take your word for it.

I mentioned Colin Salmon because IF they went with a black Bond, he would make a better one than Idris. I think he's a better actor. In my humble opinion. And that's all it is, my opinion.

Colin Salmon then. Or maybe David Olewayo... a fine actor. Far superior to Idris in my opinion... although Idris is gorgeous I'll admit.

Have you never seen the Wire? I'm stunned anyone doesn't rate Idris as an actor after his portrayal of Stringer Bell, but we are all entitled to our opinions.

No, I have never seen The Wire. You recommend it, then? Might give it a go Who knows, my opinion might change. But not about Bond :-)

Best Tv show ever made IMO. Idris is amazing. I thought he was American after watching, his accent is so convincing. Plus the Wire is 15 years old so he's been at the level for quite a while. Enjoy.
