Title: Idris Elba
Post by: Alex on January 22, 2022, 12:33:39 PM
I've read this morning that Idris Elba is in the running to take over from Daniel Craig as James Bond.  He'd get my vote !  only problem is he's nearly 50, so how long could he play the part  ?

He's made it clear that he's not interested but the rumour persists.. I like him as an actor but an old black Bond? I don't think so..Woke rubbish.

He looks fit enough to me.. I have never watched any Bond films but this man looks 'cool'  and could have a few tricks up his sleeve..

My bet is on a mixed race, lesbian female Bond next. Will fit right in with their box ticking. Transgender too naturally.

I'll go along with a black female bond klondike, I think they have already hinted of it.

That's okay if they want to do that, it's their money but it wouldn't be James Bond would it? so what's the point?

Could be Canadian PM probably. I saw Trudeau has been practicing in case he gets  disqualified though.
