Elba is too old now

I wanted Elba as Bond 10 years ago, back when Rush Limbaugh had a meltdown about it

It's so annoying that people can't have differing opinions and debate them here without some mid brain calling one side or the other a melt.

He's a British actor. What are the odds his politics would have aligned with yours at any point? The real life politics of the actor is the dumbest gate to keep here. They're all fricking soy boys.

The only one to go past was Roger Moore, and it was evident,cat age 57, that he was well past his prime and getting long in the tooth for the series


And the filming for the Roger Moore Bond movies were not as demanding as the newer ones. Roger Moore wouldn't have ever come close to being able to film the Craig movies.

The OP has been melting about actor’s races for two straight days now.

They don't have to totally align with mine, but he doesn't have to be a radical or a pacifist. I wouldn't be surprised if this puss bag wasn't a hoplophobic.

Plus, he's not white. James Bond is white.

What would make the new James Bond "woke" to you?


Making him gay or nonbinary. Or anything other than an Englishman.

Goes entirely against the brand.

There is no next James Bond. They killed him off (again like dumbasses). There can be another 007 though.

Yeah, Craig's Bond was dark, disturbed and vulnerable.

I understand his reasons for not wanting to do the role, but Idris Elba would be a great James Bond IMO.



100% agree but his decision. I would love to see it personally.

I get that...but is his race integral to the character itself?

Why would you cast any one other than a white male in the role of a white male character?
