Why does Bond have to be a black guy? This forum is racist, how about a Chinese Guy or an indian, they are usually suave and charming to play Bond. Oh dear! is there still a 'damn slavery' apologist mentality here. I personally think the idea is Absurd as JB is based on a cold war spy and there weren't any black ones at that time maybe not even now. I imagine traditional JB fans will be up in arms over the idea. There are too many black actors out there already who are allocated acting parts instead of casted for them. Will it bomb? Maybe not in Africa or the West indies, but they will have a good laugh over there.
