Wow, I just read that Idris Elba has clarified that he was never actually in the running to play James Bond, despite all the fan chatter over the years. It's surprising because many fans, including myself, always thought he would be a perfect fit for the role. Elba himself seemed to feel overwhelmed by the speculation and mentioned he didn't want the conversation around his potential casting to veer into race discussions. Instead, he's focusing on his upcoming movie, Masters of the Universe, which he has great nostalgia for. What do you all think? Should they still consider Idris for Bond, or is it time to look for someone else?
