British actor Idris Elba could be the first black James Bond, according to more leaked e-mails from Sony Pictures.
“Idris should be the next Bond,” Sony Pictures chief Amy Pascal wrote nearly a year ago in an e-mail to Elizabeth Cantillon, a former executive vice president at Columbia Pictures.
The leaked e-mail, reported by the Daily Beast, is from a trove of private e-mails, salary reports and bits of script and rough footage swiped and released by hackers believed to be from North Korea.
Current Bond actor Daniel Craig is signed on to one more “James Bond” installment, “Spectre,” due out on Nov. 5, 2015.

Also change Bond’s orientation, have him cross-dress, and instead of a Bond Girl they could cast a Bond Boy. He could drink Appletinis stirred, not shaken. Instead of violence let him talk the issues out.

I liked Idris Elba in the BBC America mini-series
Luther. If Dorothy from the Wiz and Annie can be black, why not James Bond?
Oh, bad examples...

Connery had his high tech briefcase and Aston Martin DB5, provided by Q Branch. Black & gay 007 could have a high tech purse and a Nissan Leaf.

Hollywood should do a remake of Shaft with a white actor. Maybe a MLK biography played by a Korean actor.

So would this mean Bond would have a Colt 45 shaken not stirred?

James Bond will be a post op transgendered Thai ladyboy within two more movies. Bond is a white manly man Brittish spy. Always has been always will be. They will destroy the franchise

After The Reverend Al weighs in with Sony, and just to keep the grievance theme going, he will be re-cast as “Bondage, J’aimes Bondage”

Well, if he can play Heimdal, the guardian of the bridge that leads to the home of the
Norse gods, then I guess he can pretend to be James Bond.
