That's cool. Jaime Foxx could be cool. I like him, but he's just so recognizable. Was thinking someone more obscure would be better, but it will probably require a big star to get made anyway. More power to him. I hope he and McFarlane can make it happen.

where is this coming from?
also, Bond is a British agent... ethnicity isn't essential to his background, only nationality, and that's not even all that essential since the best Bond wasn't even British.

I am black, and I think they should keep Bond white. Do you think Batman should be black too? Steve Rogers as well? Just let characters keep their ethnicities. If you change them, all it will do is call attention to their ethnicity and make them a walking racial banner rather than a character. If you want a black Bond, create a story with a black guy who is just as cool as James Bond.
well Bond will be black.. lolololol well technically British black as Idris Elba was rumored to take over once Daniel Craig was done
besides we already had a black Bond, ya know XXX with Vin and then Ice Cube
well Batman will be black once Affleck ruins it then Chadwick Boseman will take over.. lol
back on topic, I liked the first Spawn only for the visual effects.. this new version should a good story, decent acting, good villain and a good costume for Spawn

Batman (the real Batman) is one person in the comics, and only one person, Bruce Wayne. I'd be fine with Batman being black, as long is it's not Bruce Wayne... some other (black) dude taking up the mantle of Batman, cool.
Conversely, Bond is NOT one person, so casting a black actor in the role hurts nothing.
I'm really not sure how to feel about this, Spawn reboot. I guess i'm worried that, Mcfarlane is trying to make a profitable film franchise rather than see that the fans interpretation of his original character is realized respectively. I'm not opposed to a change as long as it's genuine.

i really like Idris Elba, but he's too often the go to name whenever the conversation turns to casting a black character in a superhero/action movie... he's becoming another Ryan Reynolds. Give someone else a shot, preferably someone younger than Idris.
