Although we’d love to see Idris Elba in his most sophisticated attire, enwrapping himself in a mysterious character it seems like the Bond role will not be one played by the talented actor. Hit the jump for more!
Idris Elbas has spoken and it seems like our wildest dreams may not come true when it comes to an Idris Bond, as the actor has stated:
“It’s a rumor that’s gotten out of control, basically — but that’s all it is,” Elba said on ITV’s “Lorraine.” “There’s no truth in it whatsoever.”
And when it comes to the term “Black Bond”, that is not a phrase he takes very positively:
“We don’t say ‘white Bond,’ we just say ‘Bond.’ So it suddenly becomes a black man and he’s a ‘black Bond.’ So I hate that phrase.”
