Daniel Craig: The Next Bond Should Be Black
Daniel Craig and Bond girl costar Olga Kurylenko hype up their new 007 movie, Quantum Of Solace, at the St. Regis Grand Hotel on Wednesday in Rome, Italy.
There, Craig, 40, sang the praises of Barack Obama, America’s president-elect.
“If we can have a black U.S. president we can have a black James Bond,” he said. “This is as significant as when man landed on the moon. The Obama election is a wake up call for the whole world.
Craig added, “I’m a real fan of Obama because I like his political ideas. And I think it’s the right moment for a black James Bond.”
WHO DO YOU THINK could be the next black James Bond???

What the hell? I suppose we should also have a white Shaft and a white Urkel too! We want equality after all!
James Bond aka 007 is and always should be WHITE. People don’t just change races and neither should characters. Make a movie about 008 or 006 but don’t make James Bond a different race. That doesn’t even make sense.
Toots @ 11/06/2008 at 2:36 am I think Nicole Ari Parkers hubby Boris Kodjoe would make a hot bond. Beautiful body and that look in his eyes, pure sensual seduction.
^^^^^
Boris Kodjoe’s face & features are too overwhelming and horsy. Just like baskeball player Rick Fox. They are good looking, but they look like giants. Naw. They need someone who is tall and slightly muscular but with a very attractive body - not someone like a bodybuilder or who will look clumsy when he’s running like Andre the Giant.
Also,
Angelina Jolie should be a Bond girl. She’s got the look.
Either Terrence Howard or Will Smith can pull off James Bond!!!! But I think Terrence would be dreamier for the role on screen.
Black Bond? All this poitically correctness. Puhlease. Obama is the only one who played the race card just by bringing it up. He is mixed not african american. America will get what she deserves. Check this out.

Back to Craig - he is hot for sure, but he’s only an actor, not an academic. He is a populist like all hollywood types.
Unfortunatey people listen to these type of people as if they know anything. It’s like listening to the head high school head cheerleader and taking her advice on financial and political matters.

black Dr Who
NO.
They can just make black character similar to james bond. but not james bond itself.
A BLACK BOND
AWESOME!!!!
NOW I GOT A SHOT
WHEN IM OLDER
(mayb a young bond movie would be cool)
If it has to be black then it should be Denzel Washington….He is the only black i know that can make a good James Bond movie.
Denzel Washington will do…
unknown …
I agreed with you and that’s maybe what Crag is “saying”. If you guys have a mind , think about it (meaning used it)…he’s trying to say that any person (no matter what skin color you have) should be treated the same just liked everyone esle.
Totally off topic, but this man has the most amazing blue eyes I have ever seen.
Yeah, you know what? Maybe Craig and Sean puffy puff daddy p.diddy diddy combs are right…maybe it’s time we start crossing some boundaries:
Let’s have p.diddy play Bond, Hugh Grant should play the next Shaft, and Ken Watanabe as Christopher Columbus…
ooo and Benecio del Toro would make a GREAT Clark Kent/Superman…
And how about we throw in Reese Witherspoon as Foxy Brown in a revival flick for good measure?
First off just no. Screw this idea. If they want to have a black be a spy fine. You just can not call him James Bond. James Bond is supposed to be white of Scottish decent. This character was not made for the minorities. Sorry but minorities should have to find their own movie characters to steal. Ian Flemming molded a lot of Bond after himself. He was white. Do not destroy This Great Mans dream and his work by giving blacks something else to ruin. Haven’t they ruined enough
Bet you 10 dollars black people can’t name one of Obama’s ‘political ideas’.
