For some years now, the prospect of a black man playing the role of James Bond has always been in the news.
Whenever this comes up, the only black actor people believe can play the role of James Bond is Idris Elba.
The Daily Star in the U.K published an article claiming the producer of the series Barbara Broccoli, according to the director Antoine Fuqua, thinks it is time to have a black actor as James Bond.
However, that role can only be given to someone else if Daniel Craig leaves the role. Craig has played the role of James Bond since 2006.
Pierce Brosnan who has starred as Bond has also stated he thinks Idris Elba can play the role of Bond.
Until it is announced, Iddrisa Akuna Elba, a British man of Ghanaian and Sierra Leonne descent’s name as the next James Bond will forever be a rumour.
