No, the next bond wont be black and shouldnt be black
More then enough qualified white actors to do the job. It just wouldnt sit right. I would like a black spy movie though, just soembody more relaistic, more covert

Some things should just be left alone.
A black Bond is as ludicrous as Tom Cruise playing Shaft or Lucy Liu playing Foxy Brown....leave tings how they are. I wish people would stop changing sh*t around...it's just stupid.

you are 'avin' a laugh! never happen, mate. maybe colin salmons character usually in the bond films could play in a spin off. that might work. main man? never. even i wouldnt wanna see ablack guy in THAT role just for the sake of it. seems to me that the producers of the bond film are making a right dogs dinner of a replacement anyway. first brosnan is coming back, then its suposedly daniel craig ( my choice, cos he looks like he could play a cold blooded killer), then clive owen( too wimpy looking), even talks in some quarters of robbie williams! ha ha ha at that one!
bad enough we got a black kojak now ( ving rhames). why make him 'kojak' anyway? why not a totally different cop? silly really.

You know I thought it was just me that got vex about things like that...I hated that they made Kingpin in daredevil BLACK....I hated that they made Kojak Black and now the possiblity of James Bond Black no thats just too much...

Michael Clarke Duncan made a perfect Kingpin though you gotta say... he was a waaaay better kingpin than Ben Affleck was a Daredevil!!!
Ben is a joke!! That whole film was dry though man...

I felt the same way about that chick (Jessica Alba)in fantastic four. I guess I never was into Spiderman comics that much but FF and X men I was. If they made Storm white or Cyclops black orsomething dumb like thatI'd NEVER watch it so I know what you mean....

Jessica Alba was woefully miscast as Susan Storm
They made the Puppet Masters (step)daughter black and that worked on a level, althugh I dont think kerry washington did that great a job
Would be interesting to see if they make the Puppet Master black. I reemmeber him as some short, unhinged old white dude, but I think an unhinged, old black dude could play it as well
As fgor Bond, Nah!!! But in saying that, its about time there was a black franchise movie. Nothing too taxing( leave your brain at the door movie will be fine , not xxx garabage, vin and ice cube  )You think about all the heroes /anti-heroes we grownwith, you list the black ones, and you'll hear a pin drop
