The next James Bond is black

[Pavlov]

He's 5 years younger than Craig.

Yep, and Craig is almost done. You might get two Bond movies out of Elba and have to start looking all over again.

Will they cast a white guy to play Black Panther 50 years from now?

white people have it so hard now our job as James Bond got taken away from us

I don't give a about white guys. I'm just calling the hypocrisy of only having social justice for blackmen and women. Don't you think it would only be fair to also see your fellow Koreans as lead characters in Hollywood movies? Having Asian guys (and any other minority) get the same opportunities as whites, blacks and women.

Bend over I'll give you supremacy

Usage foul. Must use exact wording.
Approprite response would have been,
”Bend over, I’ll ing show you a white suprimicist”.

I'm cool with them never making another Bond movie again.

I'm just saying he's eight years older than Craig was when he started. The Bond franchise is interesting because it's not owned by any distribution company, so they have to compete to put the movies out. Eon will keep making them as long as they make money.

[tlongII]

I love Bond movies. Craig is the best in the role since Connery. Elba would be good too I think.

[hater]

So many movies about an MI6 terrorist

It's not social justice, you sensitive tool, it's a very qualified actor getting cast in a role that has been recast half a dozen times already.

There's nothing fundamentally"white" about the character. He's an action hero who's classy. Elba is a great choice.

[Chris]

If a new Shaft movie came out with the lead cast as a white male, you would see the standards flip.

Nobody wants a new Shaft movie.

[monosylab1k]

If they went and cast Magic Johnson’s kid as the le character of the John Wayne biopic, then all your SJW whining would be justified. But white conservative tears over James Bond is just stupid.

Go to liveleak and lookup penis + grinder.

Haha, I was just stating my preference. I didn't know the rights weren't owned by anyone anymore.

Yeah, sure.

I'm cool with colour blind casting, but you are really naive ir you think this is the case.

Also, when are we having a Latin or Asian lead, or do those ethnicities not have good actors?

[DAF86]

An Asian guy starring in ONE karate flick. Yeah, you got me.

[Blake]

Yeah, sure.

How many Latin/Asian actors do you know of that have or can pull off a British accent?

[DJR210]

Elba would be badass as Bond

I think Elba is great actor. But this is forced.

How is it forced?

Looks like they never were. Every movie in the series has been produced by Eon which hardly does anything else.

[DJR210]

How is it forced?

IMO, same way as radically changing the Ghostbusters was forced. Same way as creating a movie for Black Panther (one of the tiest least popular characters growing up) was forced, at the height of the BLM movement.
