My fingers are crossed for Chris Rock or DMX.
And yes, I'm serious.
Time to bring to an end this "James Bond is white" stereotype.
That's stupid. The point is that the character is a British detective, and to make it accurate, they only use British actors. If you've got a black British actor to play the role and they play it straight, then fine.
But if Chris Rock or DMX played James Bond, I would never watch the movie, ever.
Don Cheadle can do a british accent
He can a do a bloody awful British accent.
It's like listening to Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins.
