Next James Bond...

[Taylor]

Stringer Bell (a.k.a. Idris Elba)?

I think he'd be a great Bond.

He had been rumored for a while.

 

While I think he'd be fine, he's getting a little up there in age to START playing Bond, right?

 

He's 42 already, will be 43 when SPECTRE comes out, and I believe Craig still has 1 more movie after SPECTRE on his contract. He'd likely start playing Bond at the age of 46/47 at the earliest. If he did sign on to be Bond after Craig, it would likely be a 2 movie type deal I would assume.

 

 

Someone like Fassbender looks like he could pull it off too, but he would also already be in his early 40s before taking on the role if they ever considered him.

 

 

I would assume they'd be looking more at someone who is currently in their early to mid 30s for the next Bond.

I like Craig as the current Bond.  Whoever the next bond is, I just hope for once it stays British.  And if they are going to diversify, what would everyone think if they made Bond a female?

With the exception of Sean Connery (Scottish), George Lazenby (Australian) and Pierce Brosnan (Irish), all the actors who starred as Bond were British.

You guys know that dude is black, right?

He's not going to having sex with white women in these movies is he?

He's an impostor.

To be even more specific, out of the 6 Bonds, only Daniel Craig and Roger Moore were English. Timothy Dalton is Welsh I believe.

Who really gives a flying crap who plays James Bond?

Shouldn't we get really serious about it and make it so that only actual agents can get the part?

Don't get me started on how badly they damaged Batman by having Bale play the role.

[Blarg]

You would change your tune if they announced another plant species was playing Groot in the sequel for Guardians of the Galaxy.

I thought you were going to say Judge Reinhold.  Tank will be disappointed.

[Tank]

disappointed just isn't a big enough word. judge should have had this gig years ago.

[mrwicked]

They're going to platoon Sir Reinhold with MVP. Occasionally they plan to use Yafet Kodo for scenes where they want a more conventional Bond.

[Blarg]

Ving Rhames must have turned it down simply because the Bond character isn't cool enough for him to play.

you have insight that nearly all other humans lack. thank you for reassuring me.

Yaphet Kotto is too old.  Besides, wasn't he killed by the Alien?

 

Anyhow, I think Peter Dinklage would be perfect for the role.

It would be sweet if they brought back someone from the dead like Chris O'Donnell to play Bond.

[NJHalo]

Wow! Idris Elba sounded taller on the radio.

Dwarf Bond, non-white Bond, female Bond, homosexual Bond... any other underrepresented people groups we're missing?

They prefer to be called small people.

[Sam Sanchez]

Yaphet Kotto was already killed by Bond in Live and Let Die, he's out of the picture

Also, non dwarf version of Dinklage already played a Bond villain too

[Guest]

You guys need to watch Luther. It's on Netflix. Hurry.

Kotto was killed over 40 years ago, so no one remembers.

 

And that's Peter's dad in the photo.

[mrwicked]

Neil Patrick Dinklage?
