this is a joke right?
That's supposed to be Bond? Why not just cast Ellen DeGeneres as Bond?

The genre was about dead, anyway. This should do it.

SNL joked about the idea of a black Bond a while ago. Tracy Morgan said he was "Lamont Bond."

Bring back Connery, there's a new direction.

My favorite rumor was that Quentin Tarantino ("Pulp Fiction," "Kill Bill") was going to direct Casino Royale and keep Pierce as Bond.

I was kinda partial to Bill Cosby in "I Spy".

Thinking about it, Bond has this way of every decade or so turning up as a ten-years-younger man. So now, 42 years after
Dr. No (1962), he's going to turn up as a ten-years-younger black guy.
As I said, it was getting silly anyway.

Wesley Snipes could do it. It wouldn't be Bond but it would be amusing.

Colin Salmon? There's something fishy about this.

LOL! Black Bond. How about a white John Shaft?

Ridiculous.
The article doesn't quite explain where they are getting this idea; vague references to "bets" tells me that this is all coming from online betting websites or whatever. If so, it means NOTHING. Remember on election day when Bush contracts were down to 20 or so on Tradesports? Did Kerry win?
Actually, I'd have no problem with making a series of Bond spinoffs featuring this guy... I don't know whether he's Double-O-6 or Double-O-9 or whatever but there's no reason they can't make interesting films about other agents, if they're charismatic enough.
But please. A black James Bond? And using a guy who's already been another character in the series? It's just absurd on the face of it.
Personally I wish they'd go the "back to basics" route myself: Make a true version of Casino Royale, with an actor in his late '20s/early '30s, have it set in the original time period, and go from there.
(And please please please go easy on the "gadgets"!!)

Didn't they make a movie with a black James Bond in the '70s? I think it was called Shaft.
To: aculeus
How about Gary Colman call him .007

This is not a good pic of him. He's a hunk! Very elegant in bearing - wears clothes well. He's the only reason I kept watching those "Prime Suspect 2" edpisodes with that god-awful Helen Mirren.

What a fun change.
He's probably too classy to be popular
with the home boy NBA loving crowd.
Wasn't Dougray Scott the bad guy in
Mission Impossible 2?
He was rather fetching in Ever After, though.
