Bad. He’s too old. James Bond isn’t black either. Would seem odd. Can’t imagine Roger Moore playing John Shaft.
Aw ffs. Another 20 pager. Can I sum it up?
Some people will moan about political correctness
Some people will say “Why not a disabled Muslim woman Bond?”
Some people will say his skin colour doesn’t matter.
Someone will make reference to Ian Fleming.
Someone will ask how a man without Scottish and Swiss parents who went to Eton could be black.
Someone will say that Bond is timeless and must adapt, white blokes might have been inconspicuous in Russia but not the Middle East
Someone will be called a racist. Someone will be called a millennial fanny.
Two bans.

It really doesn't matter. Bond is up there with Mission: Impossible, Bourne, XXX, Spy Kids etc as just another movie franchise.
Black Panther's success had distributors drooling so it's not out the question.
