In 2018 this should be a non-issue - he's a great actor and would make a great Bond - anyway he deserves to drive an Aston after putting up with that old Volvo  |

Wasn't this in the press earlier this year and then sometime this week? It's looking inevitable.
I'd be happy to see him as Bond. He needs coaching to pronounce letter 'h' as aitch though. |

I think Idris is a fantastic actor and I must admit a little bit of wee came out when I heard that Luther was coming back!
However Bond has a documented back story that suggests his heritage is Caucasian, so casting an actor of a different ethnicity effective rewrites that backstory.
I agree in this day and age that colour, sex or sexual orientation etc shouldn’t matter - and recently there has been many examples of white actors taking on traditionally ethnic roles (Scarlett Johansson in Ghost in the Shell jumps immediately to mind), so I guess it’s open to debate how ‘true’ to the books you think it should be. |

Very true.
That’s the beauty of acting though, they can literally be anyone and mix things up to make it more interesting! |

I can't say I'm bothered, I don't enjoy the Bond films anyway. But reading the comments on the Daily Mail web page after this story was released amused me for a while. |

"Why do we need someone younger....
I think idris would be a good choice"
because bond has to be fit, running along thin girders and dangling from helicopters etc idris looks good but doesn't look especially fit |

How true to the books are the films? There was a row on here recently about the fact that actors should be cast on merit (and box office pull, in that argument). That was about non-disabled or cis actors playing disabled or trans.
It's fiction. If the argument is that we should only ever stick to what was written then Ira Aldridge should never have been driven off the stage and Daniel Day Lewis was miscast in My Left Foot.
When A Wizard of Earthsea was made in to (a pretty awful) film they cast a white actor for a character written as black.

And James Bond was written as having dark hair, whereas Daniel Craig is of course blonde! |

I think either him or Tom Hiddleston would be excellent choices for Bond.
I don’t think age has any bearing on it. Both Moore and Connery were well into their 50s playing the part. |

The most important things for a bond (i think - as a fan) are:-
1. Does he look like he could successfully kill someone with his bare hands?
2. Does he look like he could charm the knickers off a nun?
3. Can he act?
4. Is he suitably athletic but without looking too athletic?
5. Would i fuck him?
Idris Elba has all of that covered. I want a Bond who will be in a good few films, not someone who is going to be a one Bond wonder. |

Moore was really showing his age at the end though, should have retired earlier I think! |

"They need a female 007 
"
No, they could possibly have a female 008 with all the gadgets 007 used to get.
But what ever happens to 007 the character has to remain a cold sociopathic killer, emotional assassins are both dangerous and annoying |

No. Dr Who is some weird alien who can regenerate into any form. It just so happens that it’s always been a white male so far.
I’m not up on the written heritage if Bond, but if it is specified in the original books that he is white then I guess it goes against that. But Idris would make a great Bond.
But more importantly, is Alice coming back? |

I accept we could have a black Bond but Idris Elba isn’t Bond.
Adrian Lester could do it. Bond isn’t an ‘action hero’. He’s an orphaned public schoolboy with a chip on his shoulder and an alcohol problem. Idris Elba is too physically imposing to be Bond
As for a female Bond? Never. The issue isn’t that we need a female Bond, the issue is that we need better scripts and roles for women. Atomic Blonde was a great role for Charlize Theron and Salt was pretty good with Angelina Jolie
Let Bond be Bond for better or worse. Just make different films rathe4 than try to update the character |

It won’t happen. Trust me.
That aside, he needs to be at the right age for him to be in 3 films, which will span 10 years.
For the franchise, other than anything else, he would be too old. He can’t just do one film.
There’s another emotion about a black actor playing Bond that it could happen. But not Elba. |

Never happen. He's too old I'm afraid. Also they would have essentially define something they never have done in story and that is is James Bond a identity which is given to different people or is this one person's life. |

They've rebooted before, starting from the beginning again and imagining the story and life arc in a different way.

Also do people of colour need to occupy a character who is already an white icon (to which there is already backlash and the idea is only being discussed) or should there be another character for example black panther/or alternative who's origin is based on a black experience but open to all |

I also think James Bond to a certain degree is dated. The vision of England often seen in these films I have never lived personally and cannot relate to. I find it as backwards as Downton Abbey and the the romanticism attached to a particular period of British history. |

I hope he'll be 007. But not Bond
That would really kick start the whole franchise into loads of interesting new territories it has been oddly blind to so far. 006? 008? Teams of 00s? Come on guys! Wake up to the franchise you're sitting on! |

That's a great list. Perhaps just needing the addition of "Does he look like he could drink an Irish publican under the table" |

I was reading the books in order when the fuss about Daniel Craig getting the part was all over the press and tv.
I saw his interviews and made up my mind . . . Bad choice.
Seeing the first of his films Casino Royale at the cinema I was amazed how wrong I had been.
Updated and moved to a different part of Europe the film pretty much follows the book. Craig brought back the ruthless, edgy Bond of the books that had been missing for years
David Tennant . . Oh please !! |

Poldark does Strictly

I don't have a problem with stringer bell becoming bond. It's not quite traditional Flemming, but it's not too radical in casting.
Doubt he'd announce it like that though, the producers wouldn't be very happy.

To be honest Bond is a cold war creation from thd just past ww2 era.
Nothing wrong with period drama, but to be true to the stories it must be a million miles away from modern expectations.
Perhaps it's time to retire the 007 brand. |

"Tom hardy has my vote
They can’t have a Bi Bond, lol
The names Bond, oh Matron
Wtf?!
Take it you didn’t know Tom Hardy is Bi?
Of course i knew. I just hasn't realised you were so bigoted.
How so, it’s the ultimate masculine role, don’t judge who you don’t know
You think he's bi so he must be camp. Are you stuck in an episode of Are you being served?
Try losing thecego and trying to get a rise out of others, it was a joke get over yourself.
Jokes can be funny without being prejudice. Try it sometime.
Another political speech, bet you vote labour too
We are not prejudiced, well with the exception of idiots who seem to have an axe to grind
The soap box is over there in the corner if you want it.
And your copy of "The Sun" is over there, by the exit..
Yeah really back to judgement, never read a newspaper in my life, they are all just made up trash
Enjoy the block list as you just earned it."
I’m sure he’s gonna be heartbroken. |

" - and recently there has been many examples of white actors taking on traditionally ethnic roles (Scarlett Johansson in Ghost in the Shell jumps immediately to mind), so I guess it’s open to debate how ‘true’ to the books you think it should be. "
It's not even recently, there are many examples of white actors playing black roles, Laurence Olivier playing Othello being the most notable. |

Seen a few say he's too old, or he does physically match up to the described. Pretty laughable as he's younger the some previous bonds, Daniel Craig being the most obvious choice as an example and as for physically matching up, Bond has changed enough times for that to just be a name they use for one of their agents, so as long as they see him as the best actor for the job the rest is pretty irrelevant. |

Any one would be better than Daniel Craig to play James Bond. Daniel Craig is not a very good actor he's to dopey looking and wooden i often wonder if he gets spelks and splinters in his fingers when he scratches his head. |

If you look at Skyfall Bond has clear Bi tendencies when he’s getting felt up by the bad guy he declares “what makes you think this is the first time”
I think Idris would make a good Bond shame he’s getting on a bit. I have often championed him on here for that role.
Luther is coming out soon can’t wait. |

Idris is 46 far too old you need to be physically fit to play bond and although I liked the mountain film he was in but he's not really an established act-hoare |
