Not because of some desire to see people get crazed at the thought of a black Bond, but because the talent involved would be fucking dynamite. Plus, it would just give further weight to the concept that "James Bond" is just the code name of a revolving door of Special 007 agents, and not the actual name of one man who's age and appearance have fluctuated randomly over the past 50 years.

But why not with Daniel Craig as Bond?

As such, age not race will prevent Elba from being Bond. Last time a Bond started close to his 50s, you had Roger Moore, which became more and more ridiculous.

As for Nolan, would be great. However, I don't think this will be a reality for the next film. The Dark Knight, Inception, and The Dark Knight Rises were all huge films that were shot back to back. I think that along with producing Man of Steel and Transcendence, he'll want to do something smaller ala The Prestige.

Elba would make a great Bond but he might be too old; but he's only four years younger than Craig. Even if Fassbender would be the next Bond, he'd likely be in his early 40s before he got the role.

But obviously changing Bond's race would be a major break in continuity, unless the producers suffers from the Spiderman-syndrome and wants to reboot right after Craig's done.

I think Idris Elba would be the PERFECT James Bond, if Craig does indeed need to be replaced. I strongly disagree about Nolan making a Bond film. The last thing I want is a cerebral Bond film ala Inception or The Batman Series. I hope they keep Sam Mendes as he did an awesome job with Skyfall.

He is only 29 so he will be ready say in the next 5 to 10 years. He has the looks, he is British. He would awesome in the role!!
