New Bond Rumors re: Idris Elba [IELBA] brandolphsmith Sep 29, 13:43

Random British actors being asked if they wanted to play James Bond and them being into the idea is not news. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 29, 17:14

FWIW though I'd go see Idris as Bond, although I've not cared about this franchise for many years {nm} Jane_Citizen Oct 01, 20:35

Anyone cast as a Norse God shouldbe forced to speak in ancient (um) 'Norse'. Otherwise, no gig for anyone. Jane_Citizen Oct 01, 20:33

ticket buyers had no problem with M becoming a woman, Felix becoming African-American and Bond going blond {nm} tealfan Oct 02, 07:56

With the exception of Will Smith, movies with black lead do not perform well at the international box office. {nm} Antibody Oct 02, 10:15

that's true...if this does happen someday, Idris's performance would have to be awesome to win over skeptics {nm} tealfan Oct 02, 14:20

That's totally a self-fulfilling prophecy that would lead 99% of the time to a ) black people not getting cast in Jane_Citizen Oct 02, 16:57

It's because (link) Will Smith studies box office figures and made a conscious decision to focus on starring in films heavy on FX. Also, he Andre C Oct 02, 23:17

that is a good article. the guy sound slike he should be running a studio {nm} Jane_Citizen Oct 03, 08:05

It's already true today with stars like DWASH, TPERR...etc. {nm} Antibody Oct 03, 09:55
