Idris Elba as James Bond?

Did you see it? I want to..I am willing to see Tyler in a serious role

 

i haven't seen it

even if the critics aren't raving about it, i'd still give it a go

me and critics have such divergent tastes:smt003

from an african-american standpoint tho, i'm just happy to see a brotha get a role

 

Good point. 001 would be cool and Alex Cross was horribly casted. Now thats a role that should have been offrred to Idris

 

idris woulda KILLED that shit

:smt042

i could see him in a supporting role in a bond film too

maybe replacing 'M'

Judy Dench is iconic in the role...but come on...are there ANY blacks in the bond films anymore

 

Why bother. It's a tired franchise. He should create his own spy or super hero genre. Look at Will Smith's "Hancock". Made over $600 million. Tired of James Bond.

 

ditto

 

FYI. The original concept for "Hancock" was not even a black guy & was a far more fucked up person than the one that got put on screen. It damn sure won't have been Will Smith cast for that part if they went with the original concept and if for some reason they did cast him with that original concept, he wouldn't have been looked at in the light of "hero" as in the filmed version.

 

lol @ comments in this thread

I'd love to him in that too, but oh well....

I thought the same thing for Alex Cross and here we have Madea playing him...smh

 

Lol. He's trying to be tough. Lol

 

Madea Crossed out Alex...lol

 

Yelp. Lol. His rep is ruined. Imo

 

I'd probably believe Tyler Perry in [any] role other than a super hero.

 

Sad...lol

Alexa Cross....

 

Lmao!!!!!!!!

 

He's a Madea Hero. She'he saves the day. That's good enough...

 

If he did play james bond we'd have the same group of people who whined about wild wild west complaining about the jews promoting blacks and all that other conspiracy crap.
