00:00If your dream casting for the next James Bond is Henry Cavill, Tom Harding, or Idris Elba,
00:04I have some terrible news for you. According to People, Idris Elba just completely shut down the
00:07long-running 007 rumors at his last premiere. He pointed out the reality that Hollywood is moving
00:12on, saying, they're going younger, and I wish them all the luck of the world. Idris even revealed his
00:16name was never actually in the race. This whole thing started all the way back in 2014 when a
00:21Sony executive's email leaked stating, Elba should be the next Bond. Fast forward to today, Amazon
00:26MGM has creative control. They brought in Denis Villeneuve to direct, and they're completely
00:30wiping the slate clean. Reports state they're looking for a fresh face in their 30s, and producer
00:35Barbara Broccoli officially confirmed it will be a man. Whiteness is not a given. But Idris Elba's
00:40totally fine with it, as he's currently busy fighting in Masters of the Universe. But it
00:43means the era of the seasoned, established Bond actor is officially dead, leaving us to ask,
00:48who would you like to see take the role? Drop your thoughts in the comments and follow
