"Idris isn't "English English".." - Roger Moore

[thirdeye]

I guess these guys are the right kind of english:

Sean Connery - Scottish
George Lazenby - Australian
Timothy Dalton - Welsh
Pierce Brosnan - Irish

Welp ...cac just fukked up his credit with me. He was my favorite Bond too

 

[lenfantdelacapitale]

He meant he can't be Bond because he is not white. ANother reason why we should try to start our own shyt.

 

[resurrection]

I couldn't care less about Bond, I haven't seen any of the Bond movies all the way through before, and I think Elba would be amazing in the role

But isn't the character from the book white? I don't think it's "racist" to suggest the character should look similar to how it was written. Just like casting a white person in a role that was written as a black person might be cool in that the white person could be a great actor, but it just would seem awkward and forced

 

[Arishok]

He could have just come out and said because he isn't white

 

[Sk3ptical]

only watch one bond movie and it was trash

West african excellence

 

[BlackMajik]

The only Bond movie I cared about was Goldeneye

We need to make our own franchises. fukk leeching off these white franchises

 

[scarlxrd]

That movie was surprisingly good. I really liked it.

It was a love letter to the classic bond, Craig Bond is... I don't know what the fukk they're doing with the movies now. I'm not going to lie and say I wasn't hyping Idris as a possible Bond. He'd kill it but it's not really necessary. Let them have their franchise.

Pretty fukking racist thing to say and now he's shuffling around looking for an excuse.
