Pierce Brosnan Backs First Black James Bond Former 007 Pierce Brosnan says black British actor Colin Salmon would make an "outstanding" James Bond, but there is no rush to replace Daniel Craig.
The first black Bond?: British actor Colin Salmon By James Lachno 13 Apr 2013 Pierce Brosnan has suggested that Colin Salmon would be his pick to become the first black James Bond.
The Irish actor, 59, who is about to appear in a Danish romantic comedy called Love Is All You Need, was asked who might replace current 007 Daniel Craig in the film franchise.
He said: "I've always thrown Colin Salmon's name in the mix. He's somebody I have worked with closely over the years. He would be outstanding and I think it would be absolutely essential."
Brosnan played James Bond in four films in the 1990s and 2000s, before Daniel Craig took over as the international man of mystery for Casino Royale in 2006.
Salmon, 50, appeared alongside Brosnan in three James Bond films – Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Not Enough and Die Another Day – as MI6 Deputy Chief of Staff Charles Robinson. His other film roles include Resident Evil and Alien vs. Predator.

Judging by the first list of five agents that Silva exposed on YouTube in “Skyfall”, any number of agents with different ethnic backgrounds/race could play Bond if in fact there are agents in the 00 section that fit the qualifications.
I don’t think that Bond needs to be Caucasian per se, but Eve Moneypenny is a black woman and so maybe that quota has been filled for now. (I don’t mean to sound ignorant or racist, which I’m not - I’m Puerto Rican myself - but I think that Craig is doign a fantastic job as Bond and I hope that he continues to delight us in future projects.)
They had a tranny in “For Your Eyes Only.” Tula Cossey.

Oh yes I remember hearing that.
But of course I meant for the main Bond girl for Craig (or future Shaft/Bond) to have sex with. Too bad Eddie Murphy is too old for Bond.
.
Please ignore Brosnan he is entering the early stages of dementia.

I think Tom Hanks should've gotten the part of Jackie Robinson in the recent biopic. He's "Oscar worthy".
Bond = RIP
