    I thought Idris Elba was going to play Bond next.

    I think he would be an amazing James Bond. He’s suave and handsome enough.

      I think that was just a fan casting. He’d be a good fit but I think that he’s probably too old for it from the film exec point of view. They will want to get 4+ movies out of whoever they cast.

        Yeah, sadly I agree. Would still love to see it though. He would be brilliant in the role, even if it was only one movie

      He’s unfortunately too old, since being Bond is years of commitment. People who get heavily into guessing the new Bond figured that one out.
