All is forgiven if they make this happen

Means nothing breh. Sony doesn't make the decisions with the Bond franchise from a creative standpoint. They give input and distribute but the decisions are made by the producers, Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson. Barbara wanted Daniel Craig back in 06 and they got him. Sony doesn't really have any power over Bond minus distribution. Think of it as the way Universal is with

It would be cool but if homie is pushing 50 by the time Craig retires, no thank you

Idris just has a cool ass dude aura about him n/h

Would be a perfect bond

Make it happen

can you imagine the cac outcry if this were to happen
but i thought the leaks also revealed that sony thinks black leads don't work abroad, a bit of a contradictory policy they've got going on there

well this is not a bad idea, he is a good actor and a cool guy (perfect for bond) but craig filmed his first bond movie at age 38 and he still has to do 2 more bond movies, so the third one will be like in 2020 or 2021 and idris will be like 50 - 51 years old so i dont think it's gonna happen. He should have been bond instead of craig

I think it'd be less than you think. Idris being Bond or a black man being Bond seems to be an idea that's gained steam for a few years now. Pierce Brosnan put it out there while he was Bond that the next guy should be black

Lol I think she was just saying it breh we don't have context for the conversation. but thank you for being the only other person who seems to understand that it doesn't matter what Sony or MGM says. The next Bond will be picked by two people and she isn't one of them
