Here ya go expert.
First things first. Idris Elba is not about to be named as the next James Bond. It is unlikely Idris Elba will ever play James Bond. And there is not a shred of evidence that the producers are moving in that direction. Okay?
The current chatter about Elba’s candidacy for 007 is absurd by even the standards of silly season. Here’s what happened. The Daily Star reported that Antoine Fuqua, director of the upcoming The Equaliser 2, had heard Barbara Broccoli, veteran Bond producer, argue that it might be time for a black actor as Bond. The newspaper then reminded us that – according to whom, exactly? – Idris Elba had long been in the running for the role. Fuqua reportedly expressed his own view that Elba could do the job. Nowhere here is there even a suggestion that Broccoli made specific mention of Elba.
Confirming his reputation for good sportsmanship, Elba then tweeted: “My name’s Elba, Idris Elba”. Some took this as confirmation that he wasn’t taking the role. Some took it as confirmation that he was taking the role. Sane people realised it was a joke that implied neither.
So there is nothing more than vapour to the rumours. Of course there isn’t. Eon Productions, which controls the franchise, is not going to undermine Daniel Craig’s position by announcing – or even considering – a new Bond before the upcoming 25th episode has begun shooting. Indeed, they will move no gears until after Bond 25’s release in October, 2019 and a subsequent confirmation that Craig is not to return.
That brings us to early 2020 and a consideration of why Idris Elba is out of the running. It’s nothing to do with the colour of his skin. Elba will then be 47 and, by the time any 26th film is released, he will be closing in on 50. Yes, Roger Moore was 57 when he finally hung up the Walther, but people – including Roger Moore himself – had been making jokes about his age for years. So that’s not a very useful comparison.
Now add....
For about seven years, there have been rumors that the British 45-year-old Luther and Thor star would succeed Daniel Craig and become the first black actor to play 007. Speculation recently began again, following a U.K. tabloid report, which was later debunked.
On Sunday, Elba left fans shaken—and stirred—with a cryptic tweet that may indicate the truth, and may also just be some good old-fashioned trolling.
"My name's Elba, Idris Elba," he wrote.
He later tweeted, "Don't believe the HYPE..." much to fans' disappointment.
I love how you dig deep into things, the time you spend to uncover what is really going on. The depth of knowledge you display is amazing.
Thanks. But let’s face it, it’ll be 2020 so it’s unlikely you’ll be alive to even see it.
I'd like to say according to my doctor, but...I have never been to a doctor other than s ches.

I agree.
Rosamund Pike has told how she refused to drop her clothes in order to win a role in the 2002 James Bond film, Die Another Day.
The 39-year-old actress was just 21 when she auditioned for the role of double agent Miranda Frost in Pierce Brosnan’s rendition of Bond.
