Um mos def not Diddy, he’s not an actor.

11/21/08, 14:12:pm

Jamie Foxx should he just got dat swag… Diddy not no james bodi type of guy

toocute

11/21/08, 14:12:pm

neither,no way,cant see them in that role,cant think of anyone out there right now,maybe an unknown actor.

High Life

11/21/08, 14:12:pm

Well since Diddy has no acting skills whatsoever I will go with Jamie

Hannibal

11/21/08, 14:13:pm

RICK ROSS SHOULD TRY OUT FOR THE ROLL…

Hannibal

11/21/08, 14:14:pm

Denzel or Jamie……peeps who can act.

Sawyer

11/21/08, 14:14:pm

Jamie would be cool. Of course Denzel has to be on the list, but he might be to old for those stunts. who knows?! Would put Will Smith, but ahhhh I cant tell!

Diddy, thats a hell no!

NIKKI UNDERWOOD

11/21/08, 14:15:pm

Grimace or Kimbo Slice…

I see you Hann…

11/21/08, 14:15:pm

Idris Elba maybe, or me…

Kimberlee

11/21/08, 14:16:pm

I was thinking Mos Def too…if he pumped up a bit.

But Blair baby…. yummy…he’d be PERFECT.

I would cry if Diddy got the role. Please no.

Jamie is cool…but the role requires a different swag…

CEE

11/21/08, 14:16:pm

Neither, choose my baby Morris Chestnut, fa real, but if just had to choose between the two, it dam sure wouldn’t be diddy, he makes me sick, he just so *****’n arrogant and full of himself, ugh.

Anonymous3 - the fire sign

11/21/08, 14:17:pm

Idris Elba…of course…also Chiwetel Ejiofor (talk to me, inside man, american gangster) or Derek Luke….I would never choose P.Doo Doo for the role…not enough cl*****….Jaime Foxx…ehhhh.

blaq,

11/21/08, 14:17:pm

Neither Jaime or Diddy is sexy enough.

Derek Luke, Tyrese, Big Willie could do it, What’s the youngster from biker boys? Boris Kodjoe is sexy enough for sure.

Boston George

11/21/08, 14:17:pm

You guys know that role is for Will Smith if he wants it.

And...

11/21/08, 14:31:pm

By the time we’re through labeing everything “Black this and White that” daytime will be for Whites and nighttime will be for Blacks.

We will soon be able to buy White only pies, boy I tell ya…

Will we begin labeling & using colored restrooms again?

Some characters don’t need to be adapted if you ask me. Some things hold no merit or will break a color barrier.

Just let Brad Pitt play Supafly, Jim Carey as Dolemite, Tom Cruise as Shaft, Tom Hanks as Richard Pryor…

“I Hate Black Pepper. I hate my gums cause they black. I hate Whoopi Goldberg’s lips. I Hate the back of Forrest Whittaker’s neck, and most of all I hate that black ***** Wesley Snipes.”

Ms DeSU

11/21/08, 14:31:pm

neither.

need some1 not too old not too young, undeniably handsome, athletic, killer body, with huge international appeal..hmm..i put my vote on WILL SMITH!

Blair kould pull it off 2..but he jus doesnt have quite the international appeal that now mega movie star Will has

both kould pull it off tho…easy.

princess07

11/21/08, 14:32:pm

Neither one of these guys. I think it should be either Will Smith or that british guy from the movie “Talk To Me.” he is not hot peice of man candy.

TingTong

11/21/08, 14:33:pm

Idris should be the first Black bond. Would love to see a British Black man, play the role.

I’d say Idris Elba or Djimon Honsou!!!

Yea we saw killa season and it was trash!! The only movie Cam needs to be in is Where’s Waldo! We ain’t seen that ***** since last year standing in front of that Fisher Price pool in his backyard with Homer Simpson boxers on and that 3X tank top…lmao

Kimberlee

11/21/08, 14:43:pm

Idris is the best choice… for sure.

Sydney

11/21/08, 14:44:pm

Denzel or Blair.

Diddy could play a nonchalant 40ish playboy who likes to run through women, make out-of-wedlock babies, and cozy up to the hottest celebrities who are half his age.

Oh, wait, that’s real life, isn’t it?

Sorry, 007 is too suave a character for him.

@ I luv prada

I totally agree. Neither are good for this role what so ever, but in having to chose, the only person I could run with would be Jaime

I really think the person would have to be an unknown actor. Someone overseas but with the charisma to pull it off. Bond was a BOSS!

M.I.A.

11/21/08, 14:51:pm

I think it should be Common

Rock Witchu

11/21/08, 14:52:pm

neither one of these jerk-offs. James Bond is British, so the only logical choice that makes sense is Idris Elba. he’s British, an excellent actor, and SEXY with a capital S. if not Idris, I also vote for Blair Underwood.

sepia830

11/21/08, 14:52:pm

Djimon Honsou if he can get the English accent down. Idris Elba would be my 2nd choice. Jamie…mmm…not convinced, but Diddy? Hell to the mf’ing naw.

Mrs T in DC

11/21/08, 14:53:pm

If I have to chose between Diddy and Jamie, then I chose Jamie. Diddy’s acting is painful to watch. My first choice would be Idris Elba for real though.

Jamie sqints to much ..that look is not sexy ALL the time…geesh

And...

11/21/08, 14:55:pm

I don’t want to see Jaime’s corn giblet teeth or Puffy’s baby teeth as Bond.

Idris maybe. Other than that, that’s it.

Christilicious

11/21/08, 14:55:pm

Diddy as bond….HELL NO. I f i have to choose between them 2 I’ll def go for Jamie Foxx but like someone said Idriss Alba will be perfect for the role….

dayg715

11/21/08, 14:55:pm

@pm

because for too damn long it’s been a white everything, that’s why. deal with it.

but ANYWAY, Idris Elba is the ONLY one who can be the black James Bond.

11/21/08, 14:56:pm

IDRIS ELBA is made for that role. Hot like fire, sexy-***** British accent, and he could get any red blooded female…and some males, maybe. HOT HOT HOT!!!! Love him like cooked food!!! He wouldn’t even have to be nice to me and he’d still get through! “Brings-tears-to-my-eyes fine.” U get me?

11/21/08, 14:57:pm

@sepia830

yeah, Djimon Hounsou would be great, but he’s what the James Bond franchise would consider “too black”, plus he’s african. i say Idris Elba too.

Ms. Lady!

11/21/08, 14:57:pm

Neither of them

For real though, How about Halle Berry as a female Bond? Quite lovely (with my british accent!)

chantel

11/21/08, 15:02:pm

Tyrese would be good for this role. Diddy can’t act for shi* and Jamie is not as fine as Tyrese.

11/21/08, 15:02:pm

roe ski wat part of britain u from

Amos

11/21/08, 15:03:pm

Are you crazy? Neither one of them. They have some very good-looking Black actors in Britain who speak with a British accent that would be a thousand times better. Jamie or Diddy, no way, Lawd NO!

CJ

11/21/08, 15:03:pm

Bond is a traditional white role leave it alone! Let them have their British star. How would a white man look playing Shaft!

Da R

11/21/08, 15:04:pm

Idris. diddy can’t act, jamie’s not hot enough anymore, and will smith is too much of a clown. plus, he already gets all the black leading man roles in hollyweird. time to let someone else shine.

What about Blair Underwood, I think not with Diddy, and Fox is strong maybe..

Sasha Flop

11/21/08, 15:08:pm

but i cast my vote for Idris.

darealwifey

11/21/08, 15:16:pm

LMAO @ CJ…’Sho you right! LOL It’s true…we don’t have to flip everything into black. LMAO But neither Diddy or Jamie could pull it off. The character would have to be semi-athletic, smooth and sexy, but still masculine. A guy who women want and men want to be. Once upon a time, Terrence Howard could have pulled off a role like this. Maybe Boris Kudjoe. He would be a fine ***** Bond. What’s old boy’s name who played Amistad? If he shaved, he could do it, too. We need to get a Jamaican dude to play the part because those dudes from the islands could talk ya undies off. SMH

11/21/08, 15:20:pm

Don Cheadle would be an interesting choice — I haven’t seen him in many romantic leading roles, but he definitely has the acting chops.

I just came across the name of Chiwetel Ejiofor — a British actor who was in “Children of Men,” “Dirty Pretty Things,” and “She Hate Me.” He’s interesting. . .

jdmann

11/21/08, 15:22:pm

If he got his skills up to par 50 would make a interesting James Bond…Maybe it’s time for a female Bond, Halle.

HoneyBrown

11/21/08, 15:24:pm

Aunt Viv

11/21/08, 15:52:pm

Top Brothas to play Bond (no particular order):

1. Idris Elba (fine n’ British)

2. Blair Underwood (cl*****ically fine)

3. Djimon Hounsou (wouldn’t need to talk much, we can just stare at his body for 2 hours)

4. Morris Chestnut (chocolate sex)

5. Chiwetel Ejiofor (talented n’ British)

6. Don Cheadle (could probably pull off an accent)

7. Daniel Sunjata (light-skinned suggestion, juicy lips)

Throw me under a bus/will banish entertainment from my life Brothas if they played Bond:

1. Diddy

2. Jamie Foxx

Ms. T.

11/21/08, 15:53:pm

Flavor Flav or Bushwick Bill

The real Jackson Brothers

11/21/08, 15:54:pm

First off, lets eliminate Diddy from the conversation. Any consideration given to him would be an insult to REAL actors! That being said, I believe that to crate a black james Bond would destroy to integrity of the franchise because Bond was NOT black…he was a white Brit. A role should be created for a Black man who is also part of the same org that James Bond is and it should be played by a real actor…personally I like Terrence Howard.

He’s a good actor, but he doesn’t live up in the looks department. Blair Underwood is the only man I can see who can play it. He’s tall, masculine, sexy and a great actor.

Hollywood needs to stop giving these singers/rappers movie roles when there are plenty of real actors out there.

Some of my favorite films are British — Notes on a Scandal was great. Dame Judy Dench and Cate Blanchett were phenomenal in that movie.

It’s kind of old, but Secrets and Lies was another great film about a black woman who discovers her biological mother is white. The sister who played in that has been on an American TV series, I believe.

diddy need not even ask about this role with his non-actin, tom foolery, actin *****. Jamie is formidable, but I just can’t get around his wanda days. Idris, blair, and terrance would be the better choices of consideration. If they do decide to do such a thing let the character be a spin as part of the same organization as bond, but not bond, that would make it seem un-authentic.

@ those with issues about a black bond

The suggestion of a black bond was made by the current white bond. There does not have to be a black everything, but it is satisfying to conquer roles and positions that blacks were not considered for or completely locked out of solely because of race.

CleverRich

11/21/08, 16:08:pm

And for those of you who say blacks want to copy whites-what, where you born yesterday? Every white rock band hailing from Great Britain and America ‘borrowed’ Rock and Roll from blacks. Black style, black dialect, etc. has been co opted by whites both in America and abroad. Sorry to break it to you-but white folk would still be regurgitating Bach, Mozart, et al. if it wasn’t for Black American Musicians.

Miller

11/21/08, 16:09:pm

If they are gonna ***** with the franchise of Bond they should do it right by choosing a tall, elegant,handsome, Black British actor. Short of that, maybe Boris Kodjoe if he can pull off the accent to make it real. Forget Diddy, he ugly, short, can’t act and shouldn’t be considered for the role. It is gonna be a hard sell, but they will need a man with world wide appeal in every way.

Aunt Viv

11/21/08, 16:09:pm

Hi Sydney,

There are so many British actors who do it. In fact, Chiwetel Ejiofor played Denzel’s cousin in “American Gangster”. Judi Dench creeped me out in “Notes on a Scandal”, especially in that scene when she was stroking Cate Blanchett’s hands, talking about how she and her equally creepy friends do it all the time. Eeew.

You may have heard about the Roots bus crash en route to Paris yesterday; if you haven’t, don’t freak out, everyone is fine. (Except for the bus, pictured at right. The bus is not fine.) Reports are coming out all over the place, but the definitive account is told by ?uestlove himself, who took time out while waiting on the side of the road for police and ambulances to, you know, blog about what just happened:

11/21/08, 16:12:pm

I hate to say it, but if the Bond is too dark-skinned folks ain’t gonna want that, it would be too shocking. I know this is gonna make some people mad to hear this, but we know it’s true.

Boris Kodjoe is an option. I like Will Smith, but I would prefer someone else.

Sydney

11/21/08, 16:14:pm

@Aunt Viv

LOL, girl, I remember that scene! My friend and I saw it in the theater, and we thought Dench’s acting was chilling. My friend still remembers the line when she said the highlight of her weekends was doing her laundry. Didn’t her cat die or something?

I haven’t seen American Gangster yet, but I saw Ejiofor in “She Hate Me,” and I thought he was pretty good. I didn’t like the movie much, but he was appealing.

STEFANY

11/21/08, 16:15:pm

MY PICK WOULD BE:

IDRIS ELBA, BLAIR UNDERWOOD, BORRIS KODJU, OR HENRY SIMMONS

Yeah, Boris Kodjoe would fit the part and look more appealing to an inter-national audience.

KellieD

11/21/08, 16:17:pm

I usually don’t post but I had to add my two cents. Neither one of them should be the first black bond! I think it should be Idris Elba (who is British by the way)

@Sydney,

Yes, her cat died and she was all obsessed over that too. Judi killed that role for real! I saw it in the theatre too, and was soooo creeped.

I didn’t see “She Hate Me”, and now that I think about it, Chiwetel did play a man in drag in some movie I saw a while back so I guess him playing Bond may be a bit challenging for people to swallow.

For some jealousy in show biz, i feel like Jamie has more chance than Diddy. For some directors, diddy’s diva image doesnt fit with the bond role; that’s the main reason why diddy is not geting a major role in hollywood career.

I’m a very dark-skinned man and at work when women talk about handsome guys they have a crush on, and I do mean all women, the white, Asian and Black ones. They bring up Boris, Will and Shemar and the tennis guy Blake, I don’t know his last name. The white women are particularly drawn to Boris, Shemar and Will and they gush about how sexy and handsome these guys are. I had never heard of Boris until I saw a picture of him on a magazine on one of the secretary’s desk.

11/21/08, 16:26:pm

@Aunt Viv

Daniel Craig appeared in some offbeat films before becoming Bond as well — I saw him in this British movie “The Mother” in which he played a man who had a sexual relationship with a grandmother, and it was definitely un-Bond-like. But that’s what I like about foreign films — they often push the envelope on what we think is acceptable.

That’s an interesting point about foreign films. I remember not being allowed to see “The Crying Game” when I was younger because of its subject matter. They don’t make as big a deal about things.

I agree, if the dude is too dark Bond will not have the same appeal all over the world, that’s just the way it is. The Will Smith, Boris Kodjoe, Shemar Moore types are considered better looking and *****, like they are somewhere in the middle or something. And more people can see themselves in these kind of dudes than in Cheadle, Elba, what have you.

Well, I’m a woman, and Shemar does NOTHING for me. I think Boris and Will are good-looking, but there’s something missing for me in terms of depth.

Now Denzel and Blair are on another level.

@Aunt Viv

Yeah, I think you’ll like Run Lola Run — it goes along pretty quickly and it’s entertaining. Plus, I liked listening to the German.

OK, when I first saw The Crying Game, I was totally freaked out by that scene (and you know which one I’m talking about) — I wasn’t ready for that “revealing,” lol. And some of the violence shocked me as well.

back in da day!! Denny is a little mature for the role. They need a big name to sell the idea to the studios (you know how they are!!) The only logic choice is Will Smith. He can act, bring cl***** and sophisication to the role. Like our first black president, Barack Obama, we need someone to represent in a cl*****y way! SORRY J-just not sexy enough to bring it like that. Diddy (please go home and stop playing!!!)

@cliff–you are on point about that too.

I agree with Cash! Some things should be left as is. We won the Presidency, do we have to take Err’ thang? All kidding aside-we know we’d sh*t gold bricks if they tried to do a white Dolamite or remade Spike Lee’s “X” and cast Ashton Kucher in the role of Malcolm X. Let’s be sensible. Like one of the earlier posters wrote, let’s create our own characters-fund movies ourselves. There’s no reason Spike Lee should have to crawl to Hollywood begging for a budget. We should, as a community, finance our own films. In the Blaxploitation days, black actors worked on a regular-and the only people *****ed about those movies were studio heads who were seeing black producers, actors, and crews making money they weren’t seeing any of. Let’s get back to that.

Why don’t they give the role to the many struggling unknown Black actors out there dedicated to their craft and desperate for a chance. That honestly what I think they should do. Stop rotating the same damn Black people like our talent is limited to a number than can be done as a hand count. That’s bull*****. Give someone else a chance. They’re always trotting out some young blond whatever and cramming them down our throats before be can even have a chance to digest the LAST talentless broad/dude they paraded our way. They may be on heavy rotation but at least they have a chance to showcase their talents. Since when did a significant number of Americans not count as “marketable”? Once again, I call Hollyweirds bull***** shenanigans.

Dr. Funk-I was watching a program that had all the old actors-Fred, Jim Brown, Pam Grier, etc. They were saying that it killed their careers when the backlash against blaxploitation movies hit. Blacks liked them and like any other film genre, there were good ones and there were bad ones. My point is, risk aside, since we would most likely be the target audience, we should collectively fund those movies as a people. They report that $750 billion p*****es thru the black community annually. It’s about time we stop turning around and giving it back to the people we got it from. There are approx. 39,000,000 of us in this country. If we all donated $20 a year to a general fund, that would generate $780,000,000 a year that could be used to fund films, rebuild communities, fund scholarship programs for our brightest. We need to come together and stop sitting around watching the faux riche (fake rich) like Damon Dash show us ‘how it’s supposed to be done.’ Most of these so-called ballers are 2 pay cuts from poverty.

11/21/08, 18:47:pm

It comes down to only two actors: Idris Elba, or Chewitel Ejiofar. They are both black Brits, and they are both sexy. Diddy? Please, excuse me while I vomit in my mouth. Jamie? Oscar winner, yes, but sexier than Idris or Chewitel? Not happening.

It should be at least be an actor from the UK, just to keep up with that tradition. Also, I think American actors play terrible European characters. For example, why does Tom Cruise have an American accent in Valkyrie when his character is Germen?? *kisses teeth*

Yvonne

11/21/08, 18:59:pm

I don’t see Diddy or Jamie playing that role.

If the want to find a black Bond I think it should be a black actor who is not that well known but can act, very suave and handsome with a nice lean body built to do those amazing stunts.

It does not necessarily have to be someone from the US.

jen

11/21/08, 19:00:pm

NEITHER DIDDY OR JAMIE FOXX! (BUT IF I HAD TO CHOOSE, IT WOULD BE FOXX) maybe some blair underwood or BORIS KODJOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I spy with my sharp eye

11/21/08, 19:01:pm

No one should play “black Bond” and Beyonce should not play Wonder Woman. Neither character is black nor needs to be. Should the white population now try to force a “white Shaft” on the world? Barack Obama becoming the new president of the US does not mean it is “open season” for the black population. A show of some decorum is needed.

why are americans so aarrogant, if ther was ever going to be a black bond which is unlikely. It would have to be a black british actor, yes there are black british actors and some are even better than the black american ones. So stop *****uming that all acting roles must go to americans.

11/21/08, 19:35:pm

I don’t believe they should ever make a black Bond. Anyone remembers the the black Honeymooners with Cedric the Entertainer & Mike Epps. Black folk need to stop cooning just because a white man suggested a black man could possibly portray James Bond. As Marcus Garvey once said “Don’t remove the kinks from your hair, remove the kinks from your mind.” Black people are too creative (at least we used to be) to be taking white peoples sloppy seconds.

You can make a black action hero who is James Bond-ish, but not a black James Bonds. James Bond is too much of a movie icon to be messed around with. Characters like Superman, Batman, Peter Pan, Dirty Harry, etc. are white and have always been white. They should always remain white. To re-imagine iconic white characters as black, Latino, Asian etc. is an insult to the intelligence of both black and white movie fans. That is not diversity, that guilty white liberal Hollywood tossing minorities a bone. If Hollywood wants real racial & ethnic progress, they need to open the doors (although we should really create our own opportunities and work with white progressives) to black, Latino, Asian, Arab, Native American Indian, Polynesian artists. Not just minority actors, but directors, script writers, editors, sound engineers, costume designers, cinematographers, producers, and musicians to the score ( and I don’t mean hip hop or R&B music, people who can do orchestral music).

Colin Salmon would only get the role as a consolation prize.

And I can see why black people don’t get very far as movie executives. Jamie Foxx? It’s not enough Bond “has” to be black; he has to be “hood” too? Hell, why not Snoop Dogg, then? Would a black Blond spend 15 minutes giving pounds and dap to Jeff Wright’s black Felix Leiter?

Personally I don’t think we need a black Bond. I like Daniel Craig as Bond (with his sexy self). We just need our own black spy movie franchise. I think Don Cheadle would be great but he doesn’t have the “look” to make it successful.

Why do we need a black Bond? Bond is Bond. Like someone else said, that’s like a someone saying “hey, it’s time for a white/Asian/ Latino whatever Shaft character.” I’m sure we can come up with an original black action character who has swagga and is good with the ladies.

It is unlikely that a non British actor will be chosen.

If they are going to make a Black James Bond, the name would have to be changed. As for a white man playing Shaft that would work also but the name would have to be changed and we all no he would not be kicking ***** in the hood like Shaft did.

As for The Black Bond I would say Idris Elba, but if they called it the Black James Bond I would not go see it. It definitely has to be called something else.

Jim Dandy

11/22/08, 07:13:am

@What The, this is your man – COLIN SALMON. He’s already been in Tomorrow Never Dies and Die Another Day (foreshadowing) and about 60 other movies AND he’s British. Everything white doesn’t have to be black but it does put an interesting twist (@PM, like Angelina Jolie as Foxy Brown – that would be kinda tight – plus she already played a black woman in A Mighty Heart).

Definitely want to maintain the integrity of the Bond franchise. Having a black actor take the role that’s not good enough is like having Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton as the first black president instead of Obama, it messes it up for everybody. And I agree that he should be British.

Daniel Sunjata is an interesting suggestion. Reminds me of Richard Grieco in If Looks Could Kill. He’s got the looks but not enough charisma and maturity. Boris also has the looks but lacks the full “je-ne-sais-quoi” required for Bond. And he’s still a long way from proving some real acting chops.

Idris Alba is a good maybe (if you like your coffee black – no cream, no sugar). Is he too old? And he would need to pull off a killer British accent.

Diddy: don’t make me puke

Blair: He’s got the looks, acting ability and Je-ne-sais-quoi. But can he pull off the action??? He might not even need a British accent if he could.

This is not a role for Will Smith or Jamie Foxx. Not gonna happen. Talented, yes. James Bond, no.

Do the research: COLIN SALMON

it’s kinda racist to say that the black bond would need a different name. would you much rather he be name Tyrone Jackson or something.

come on black people!

eitherway, why do we need a black version of bond. we should be making our own film with an original story line similar to bond, rather than trying to fit blackness into long established white roles.

‘Some things should be left as is. We won the Presidency, do we have to take Err’ thang? All kidding aside-we know we’d sh*t gold bricks if they tried to do a white Dolamite or remade Spike Lee’s “X” and cast Ashton Kucher in the role of Malcolm X.’

Uh, Malcolm X was a Muslim, a brave advocate for the human rights of black Americans, and lastly, a REAL, black man. While on the contrary, James Bond is a FICTIONAL character created by Ian Fleming for several of his novels. Oh, hell yes, we’d definitely ***** gold bricks. But a Caucasoid as X, is just feebleminded and preposterous.

‘In the Blaxploitation days, black actors worked on a regular-and the only people *****ed about those movies were studio heads who were seeing black producers, actors, and crews making money they weren’t seeing any of. Let’s get back to that.’

True

We “Blacks” Are The Real Hebrew Israelites

‘Why don’t they give the role to the many struggling unknown Black actors out there dedicated to their craft and desperate for a chance. That honestly what I think they should do. Stop rotating the same damn Black people like our talent is limited to a number than can be done as a hand count. That’s bull*****. Give someone else a chance. They’re always trotting out some young blond whatever and cramming them down our throats before be can even have a chance to digest the LAST talentless broad/dude they paraded our way. They may be on heavy rotation but at least they have a chance to showcase their talents. Since when did a significant number of Americans not count as “marketable”? Once again, I call Hollyweirds bull***** shenanigans.’

When a script is in the development phase (part 1 of 5) and it’s envisaged to be a ‘blockbuster’ budget with a ‘blockbuster’ return well over expenditures, investors, executives, and distributors (Warner Bros., Paramount, Universal), almost entirely demand bankable, seasoned, and accomplished lead actors for marketing and the circulation of films in the movie theatres, and eventually DVD sales. So, creating a melanin-charged, James Bond for a non-household name, is a high risk/gamble that ‘could’ result in low net profits and investment capital. In Hollywood, it’s all about a valuable return or gain.

I completely agree with you as far as given roles to struggling actors. However, I don’t agree with re-creating the movie, but it will probably happen anyway. Off the subject of Bond, but I’d personally like to see Sharon Warren given more roles. She’s best known for her breakthrough role as Aretha Robinson (Ray Charles’ mom) in the movie Ray. Her performance left me speechless.

Phoenix

‘I don’t believe they should ever make a black Bond. Anyone remembers the the black Honeymooners with Cedric the Entertainer & Mike Epps. Black folk need to stop cooning just because a white man suggested a black man could possibly portray James Bond. As Marcus Garvey once said “Don’t remove the kinks from your hair, remove the kinks from your mind.” Black people are too creative (at least we used to be) to be taking white peoples sloppy seconds.

You can make a black action hero who is James Bond-ish, but not a black James Bonds. James Bond is too much of a movie icon to be messed around with. Characters like Superman, Batman, Peter Pan, Dirty Harry, etc. are white and have always been white. They should always remain white. To re-imagine iconic white characters as black, Latino, Asian etc. is an insult to the intelligence of both black and white movie fans. That is not diversity, that guilty white liberal Hollywood tossing minorities a bone. If Hollywood wants real racial & ethnic progress, they need to open the doors (although we should really create our own opportunities and work with white progressives) to black, Latino, Asian, Arab, Native American Indian, Polynesian artists. Not just minority actors, but directors, script writers, editors, sound engineers, costume designers, cinematographers, producers, and musicians to the score ( and I don’t mean hip hop or R&B music, people who can do orchestral music).’

See, that’s what I’m talking about. My colleague and I were just discussing the remake of James Bond and racial injustices in the industry two days ago. Your comment reminds me of my fellow black, film Tischies (TSOA) I met while in grad school years ago. Several of us are p*****ionate about our craft, and are endeavoring to see change behind the 16/35s. Not to appear pessimistic, but if the script (9 times out of 10 will be written by a white writer) gets the approval stamp, it will most likely contain excessive, subliminal stereotypes and clichés.

SMH.

Great post BTW.

Whoever it is, he has to have international appeal. It has to be someone all woman would desire and men would want to be like. That’s the point behind Bond. I don’t think Diddy or Jamie have what it takes. I don’t find either appealing at all. Not even the money makes them appealing to me.

An unknown would be good. Has to fit all the criteria and then some. English preferably. If such a brotha exists and they just dropped it on everyone it could really be something.

I’m throwing LEWIS HAMILTON’s name into the hat as well. He’s suave, young, English (far as I can tell) and has the looks.

Lastly, maybe the character doesn’t have to be James Bond. He could still be 007 but could be Bond’s successor. That would freshen up the series and justify a totally different character. Bond producers, this idea is free of charge.

I don’t think Bond should be anything other than British, let alone another ethnicity.

Replacing a traditional white role with a black man is not progress.

It seems the way Bond works is that the franchise makes the person who plays Bond famous. So to me, it can’t be someone who is already famous. So no Diddy, no Denzel, no Will, no Terrence, no Jamie. They would overshadow the role. I think Blair Underwood would do a good job. Can’t think of others at the moment.

Go for an unknown! a british born actor, not some fake wannabe. Go for someone over 6′1 and someone biracial to give bond an exocitic black/whatever mix look. Jamie fox isnt bond material, not with those black lips and sparied up hairline, definitely not old man diddy with the hip hop swagger and knock knees…i cant picture neither jamie or diddy with a british accent. If you people have sense, go for a biracial model-esque british guy, make us blacks look good for a change and leave these old washed up actors like denzel and will alone.

Oh, I just scrolled up and saw all the Elba endorsements. LOL, great minds think alike, I can soooo see him in that role.

Definitely Blair Underwood! No one can touch his swagger right now!!!!!!!!!

Definetly Blair Underwood, Taye Diggs, or Idris Elba….diddy please and Jaime is not that debonaire…. he would be a carricature

I would love Idris to play the role. I can see a gay guy playing Bond it would certainly be innovative at best.

11/22/08, 20:17:pm

Neither…. Either Djimon Hounsou or Idris Elba, but definitely NOT DIDDY

Idris Elba or Djimon Honsou

The real important question here is whether Idris as James Bond would have a bond girl… or bond boy.

—————————–

No, the real question is not gender, but race. Lets pretend Idris is straight (wishful thinking), do you think the film producers would cast a white or black bond girl to play along with him? Unfortunately, society is not at a place yet where they want to see a black man get it on with a white chick. and I know most definitely that some of you black females ain’t feeling your Idris getting it from some swirly thing on screen.

Idris Elba has an authentic accent and would do a great job.

We should know that they always cast some guy who is not famous. So I say Dino Hanson.

Look him up and I bet you will agree!

but why do people in hollywood keep showing these white men as the ideal. the only bond i have thought was at all attractive was sean connery the rest blah yuck.

also the person who told me to shut the f**k up because british actors fooled into thinking they are american thats my point when an american especially a male can master the british accent get back to me.

Unfortunately neither of the two has the James Bond face. Maybe Jamie… But hey, It would be very very interesting to see that happening!

Hey, what about a female bond? An asian bond? Why just a black bond? it could be like CSI instead of one for every city one for every minority and THEN you could add into the mix a disabled Bond because, lets face it, WHY should they be left out too? It’s about time disabled folks were offered better roles! (SMH)

Come on! This is ridiculous, as “And…” said , you see Tom Cruise playing Shaft? He’s an iconic african american popular character, and Bond is an iconic caucasian character. Get over it!

Now no one is stopping anyone from coming up with a James Bond-like franchise that would become a cl*****ic character and be played by a non caucasian male, but it wont ever be James Bond.

11/23/08, 21:40:pm

neither…how about Will (fine as wine) Smith?

Diddy can play ***** Galore and Jamie can play Odd Job…lol

ben (thpbt)

11/24/08, 05:17:am

To be honest, neither. And James Bond is a White English guy. This is not to say that there can’t be Black action-spy-heroes. There can be. But there’s no need to change the James Bond character. Just write a new, interesting, black spy action-hero.

maamz

11/24/08, 05:21:am

NOOO DONT WRITE AN NEW STORY kmtttt….jamie fox shud b itt hes gt tht swagga….diddy i cnt imagine him fighting bad guysss it would jus look stupid..JAMIE FOX IS DA DON OR DENZELLL…..try gettin a black britishhh INNIT

11/24/08, 08:49:am

Not these 2 ugly clowns it should be Denzel Washington or Terrence Howard

coco

11/24/08, 10:25:am

Blair Underwood should be the first Black Bond, hands down!!!!!

copelli21

11/24/08, 10:25:am

Oh gawd….I see the same 4 or 5 names coming up repeatedly.

Jamie Foxx – NO

Will Smith – GAWD NO

Diddy – HELL TO THE NAW!!

Blaire Underwood – Nope (he has a corny factor that just won’t work as Bond)

Denzel – Sorry, love D. but too old

Idris – He mumbles and looks too rough, lacks the suaveness.

I think if you want to do Black Bond, then you need to find a fresh face. There are other black actors out there.

Better yet, I agree with the idea that Ian Fleming’s Bond is a white character, so do we have to apply our “political correctness” slant to it and Blackify it? What’s next the latino Bond? Then the Native American bond? Oh can’t forget the Asian bond and then the Armenian Bond…..just leave it be.

I'm Out!

A lot of y’all are high. Has to be some sort of Brit – the only one’s I can think of are Chiwetel Ejifor, Idris Elba and Adrian Lester. There’s probably (hopefully) some young good looking Black Briton working in tv and films over there, but I don’t know of him.

An American Bond would be the dumbest thing ever – Black or White.

nico

11/24/08, 12:40:pm

NEITHER! Terrence Howard is my first pic..Blair Underwood is my 2nd. I love Denzel, but he might be a bit old for that.

I Choose Me

11/24/08, 13:25:pm

Chiwetel Ejiofor. No question.

I should be the first black James Bond because,though I’m a Canadian lad rather than a U.K. one,at 56,5-9,218 lb.,I’m considered cl*****ically handsome and speak with a working-cl***** braying tenor which belies my age,size and race.(I CERTAINLY don’t sound “urban”[read:"black"]because I’m also a Country singer/song-writer.
