Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Idris Elba would totally play James Bond

Idris Elba is a fine looking gentleman that women love for his hotness and men love… well, perhaps for his hotness, but also because he’s a damn good actor who’s versatile and can take on any role with ease. There’s been plenty of talk about him possibly being the next James Bond, which would definitely be a first – it’s about time a black actor took on the role! – but would he do it? Of course he would!

Here’s what he said during his Reddit Q&A this weekend about the possibility of taking on the iconic role:

“Yes, if it was offered to me, absolutely.”

LOL, well, okay! Frankly, I’m not even into the Bond films – I think I’ve seen 2 or 3 of them, but I wouldn’t say I’m a die-hard fan, so I can’t speak for the franchise or if he’d be good for that particular role. Why not, though? He’s a great actor, he has that debonaire Bond thing going on and frankly, anything is better than Daniel Craig.

What do you think?
