Discuss: Would a Black James Bond be a good Idea??

James Bond actors

Daniel Craig, whose new Bond movie QUANTUM OF SOLACE hits theaters this weekend (Read my Review of the movie) said to Telegraph that he’s always admired the newly elected President of the United States, Barrack Obama and with that victory, he thinks that the world is ready for Black James Bond…

“After Barack Obama’s victory I think we might have reached the moment for a colored 007. I think the role is well suited to a colored actor because the character created by Ian Fleming in the 1950s has gone through many changes.”

“However, I think that this eventuality would probably make Fleming turn in his grave,”

Recently, Beyonce wanted to play Wonder Woman, and I mentioned that as you know, Samuel L. Jackson plays Nick Fury in IRON MAN Movies,… Last year, Angelina Jolie was a colored woman in A Mighty Heart, and back in 2003, Michael Clarke Duncan was the Kingpin in the movie Daredevil,
At one point, P.Diddy formerly known as Puff Daddy had expressed his interest in playing the first African American James Bond ever.

So do you agree with Daniel Craig? Is the world really ready for a Black James Bond?? If so, Which black actor is best to play the role?

    No, the world does not need a black James Bond, the world needs an Asian James Bond.

    He’ll be known as… “Secret Asian Man”

    Baby steps, as I don’t think they even had a Bond that’s not from the British Isles (except for that one Australian dude who played Bond once). In any case, I nominate the guy who played Mr. Eko from ‘Lost.’ He’s English.

    Cheers,
    Ryan
