If anything good came out of the studies Sony hack-and the subsequent disclosure of the contents of its executives-mails was confirmation that those rumors about the future James Bond were more than delusions of a fan of the character created by Ian Fleming. In one of the many of the messages published by hackers, the president of the company, the now famous Amy Pascal, wrote: “Idris should be the next Bond”, referring to the English Idris Elba as the possible successor to Daniel Craig.
It appears that Spectre, to be released in November 2015 and whose script had been stolen in the hack, is the latest venture of Craig as Agent 007. The strongest candidate to replace him is the protagonist of the excellent police series Luther (two new episodes arrive in 2015 at the BBC Latin signal).
Of course not everyone is happy with the change of guard. From the very most racist corners of Internet-those same places where many complained about the black character who appears in the expected Star Wars: the awakening of force – also were those who said they may Elba be British, cute and good actor, but also black, and that disqualifies him to play the spy. “James Bond is a concept created by Ian Fleming. It’s white and Scotch. Period. That was and is James Bond,” said Rush Limbaugh, a radial opinólogos of American extreme right.
Beyond controversy, Elba had already responded to the rumors that put first in the bloodline of the British agent. “I will not only be the black James Bond. Sean Connery was not the Scottish James Bond Daniel Craig’s Bond and blue eyes”, said a few years ago the actor in an interview on US public radio. And this time, his answer came via Twitter. “?! Are not you supposed to be 007 must be handsome Glad to think I have a chance Happy New Year” .
