I didn't wanna make a new thread just for possible casting news or derail the existing 'Spectre' thread.

anyhow, David Oyelowo is purportedly the next person to take up the title of Bond.

😘

If we get a chocolate Bond, it's Idris or gtfo.

selma dude is just recording a james bond audio book...

yeah, i followed up on that, but it was too late to edit my comment.

but i do think that him or Idris would make a great Bond though

I liked Skyfall and the new one looks really good too. So if he hates it, he's hiding it well.

ageist.

lol'd when I read it. The Bond films were his claim to fame.

I can understand if he's wanting to move on after doing three while looking at a contract for several more ahead of him. But wanting out after the first, especially considering it bumped his career, it's odd statement.

Lol...look at the year.

Anthony Horowitz
"Idris Elba is a terrific actor, but I can think of other black actors who would do it better. For me, Idris Elba is a bit too rough to play the part. It's not a color issue. I think he is probably a bit too 'street' for Bond. Is it a question of being suave? Yeah."

Daniel Craig is way more "blackstreet" than Idris Elba.

Who is more suave than Idris Elba? lol, google search "suave man" and literally a picture of Idris Elba comes up. 😬

That's so 7hrs ago, Mouth.

But yeah, dick move, total dick move. **** that guy.

Though I think "too rough" was directed towards Daniel Craig when he was being considered and he turned out to be the best Bond to date.

He's bit of an idiot that guy is

i remember when they made a movie on one his Storm Rider books and he's going on about how James Bond is too old now.....yeah Storm Rider's first movie went down so well.

Sounds like a good enough idea.

so, now Tom Hardy's name is out there to be the next Bond.

Love Hardy, but i honestly don't see it... funny enough, because i think he's "too street".

Yeah, Hardy is way too street for Bond, possibly even too urban.

I'm down for whoever connects to the part. Oyelowo would actually fit pretty well from what I've seen of his acting range, but Elba in a tux is hard to deny as fitting the Bond look and persona before a word is even spoken. Add to that that he can actually act and had done a smattering of action, drama, all the pre-reqs, I like him for it.

I should be Bond.
