Legend

There's talk the next James bond could be a black actor. Idris Elba. Personally would prefer if they stayed faithful to the novels. You wouldn't get a European to play a future Jackie Chan. Can't help but feel the success of black panther has triggered this.
I've heard the Idris Elba rumors for a few years now so it definitely isn't solely a result from Black Panther.

On one hand I don't think it makes sense to change characters that are larger than their individual movies, but at the same time James Bond has always been portrayed in a slightly new way with each new actor. It's not like the character is static to begin with.
