The only adjective that accurately describes this women is that she's black.

There is nothing stunning or beautiful about her.

Why can't people just let shite be?

Nothing against her race but James Bond’s character is male and should be played by a male. Anyone cowering down to a certain group to appease them is mostly doing so to look hip and innovative. Something’s just shouldn’t be made into a political and social statement.

But will she identify as a middle aged, Caucasian, British male?


Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan did.

Just because you say it isn't doesn't mean it's true. Of course, we don't expect you to admit it anyway

WTF? Would it have really been so difficult to just get Idris to take over the code name?

It would be comparable if Ariel was played by a dude. It's a mermaid, which is a made up creature that is female.

James Bond is a dude. The only way to shoehorn this chick in is to act like 007 and James Bond are 2 separate entities. Then it's a completely different movie because the books and the movie series are about a guy named James Bond, not a code name 007 that multiple different people share.

It is completely different from hiring a female for a female part.

After reading a bit, it does seem that the OP has posted some clickbait.

The subject of the thread is 007, but not James Bond. They will both be in the film.

Connery is British, strictly speaking. Scotland is part of Great Britain. He is not English, however.

Right. I did some reading up on it. She’s not James Bond. She’s just going to get the title because james will be stripped of it for insubordination during the movie. He’ll get it back. She’ll just be a co-character with him. So simmer down baws. You’re not losing your white James Bond.

They are one in the same though.

I'm the last to say there's some agenda in Hollywood and all that shite, but separating 007 from James bond just to hire a black chick for the role is hilariously transparent.

Why are you upset that a fictional character is a black woman now?


If there was a remake of Sanford and Son, would you be upset if Fred was a white woman? Somethings just aren't made to be fricked with.

I'd have no issue with a guy like Idris Elba playing the role. He's a badass.

Sanford and Son was a knockoff, or nick, as the Brits would say, of a white casted British sitcom, Steptoe and Son
