I know, right?

I try not to be jealous, but...I'm a little bit jealous. :(

hiddleston can't even get his tan to meet his hairline, how's he going to lead a successful film series?

Mte
Anyone but him plz

L M A O

lmao!

Lmao

lmfao damn

bye lol

LOL

Fuck

nnnnnn. bitch hdu. lmaoooo.

I've only really followed the Bond films since he took the mantel (was never interested before, not particularly interested now, but my friend always wants to go so I go with her) but for him to be turning down that much I'm guessing he really didn't want to continue.

I kinda hope they'll pick an unknown. It's Bond, you don't need an actor with a "name" to sell t.

This is me, i was never interested in watching Pierce Brosnan's James Bond movies, and never thought he was sexy~ or whatever, but i like Daniel a lot, so i was sold the minute they announced him for the role. I will always love Casino Royale and Skyfall.

i'd rather have Idris Elba than Hiddleston but Hiddleston's better than Daniel Craig, I guess.

#IdrisForBond

IDRIS IDRIS IDRIS

or lucy liu

either will piss off the angry white men so i'm good

Lucy Liu would be awesome Bond and I totally would watch it. This coming from someone who hates the Bond movies.

Lucy Liu would be great. Then we could have a Bond Boy walking out of the ocean wiping his wet hair out of his face all glistening. This is a great idea.

idris elba can be the bond boy and i will have the perfect movie

yes pls

idris is too ~street~ to play bond

rme

I like this

But see, Idris Elba is actually a commercially viable option and much more attractive than Hiddleston (who I like, actually). Did all the public speculation and controversy over those stupid "street" comments hurt his chances, or were they just never, ever going to cast a black man?

~Idris is too street

Being serious, I want him or Chiwetel, Lucy Liu would be good too, but Bond doesn't have to be brittish ?

i'm here for a woman or someone not-white. fleming may have intended bond to be caucasian, but i think not only get with the times, but accept that bond as a character could really just be of any background, because the premise does allow for it.

I've wanted idris for a while, but I never new I wanted lucy liu until now!

No to an american bond.

But I would love for a woman bond, otherwise. Though tbh, Idris would be perfect.

Lbr it'll now go to Benadryl.

Come now sis, James Bond has to be played by a British guy, not a lizard.

Lol

You know there are people out there who would prefer a lizard over a black man.

that's species discrimination

LOL Christ no...

Sssshhh, a friend of mine already joked about him playing Lestat so I'm on the edge as it is.

Lol no

lol well, as if his no-fucks-given / so-done-with-this attitude during the last promo tour wasn't a clear message ...

of course they would rather go with a repulsive white guy like hideouston before a fine black man like idris

Thank God

Good for Daniel Craig. Respect.

Also yikes at Hiddleston. YIKES. I said it in another post, if they want a wispy skinny dude they should get Matthew Goode.

Lol yeah I kind of like him more for not backtracking for the money. He clearly meant what he said.

Goode would be a fascinating choice. He has the perfect mix of charm and smarm.

omg yes Goode is a great choice!

i actually like hiddleston but he is a terrible choice.

Ooh, good idea. Matthew Goode is so fucking dreamy.

Goode would be AWESOME.

I approve this message Matthew Goode in motion is delish.

I don't get the Hiddleston obsession. He's not a particularly good actor or nice to look at... Just charming above average.

I agree with Goode! I hadn't thought about it before.

I adore Idris but I don't want him in this franchise tbh, but at the same time it would be awesome to annoy Bond's racist author and fans.
