007 and James bond is the code name so it doesn't matter the race I'm just upset they wouldn't let Edris play the role I think he would have done an amazing job. That being said I understand why they said no to him cause a black spy doesn't really blend well in Europe upper echelon which confuses me as to why they chose her instead... Smh
I don't get why they just make an entirely different plot for her without making it overly attached to the original 007. I won't hate on it, but it makes as much sense as Uma Thurman being remade by a guy.
Hell no.
The last 3 haven't been that good in my opinion, and I wouldn't have seen this one as a result of that.
After completely changing Moneypenny's character, and Q, now they pull this stunt? No.
I stopped watching Bond when they gave the lead to a Scotsman lol only kidding , sorry. I gave up when Timothy Dalton did it , he was rubbish , I did watch the pierce Brosnan films and he was pretty good but Daniel Craig was to similar to Dalton so I just can't be bothered anymore anyway.
Nope, Im done
James Bond will always be 007 and thats all there is to it. I will not watch this crap.
Nothing wrong with movies with lead women. I actually like strong women. But make something original and fresh. Dont just turn a male role into a female.
Kinda defeats the purpose of the role, why couldn’t they make a new franchise?
Also no I won’t be watching it, but to be fair I don’t watch many movies.
Tbh I only ever watched Skyfall. I liked Daniel Craig's Bond but he said himself he doesn't want to do it anymore, and since they didn't change the actual character himself I don't see a problem with a change in the owner of the codename. Besides if Bond were a real man he would probably want someone to succeed him so I don't see the problem.
I don't tend to like Action movies in general because i want a good story in what i watch and be made to think. Character ruination does not change the fact i won't watch it, it just makes me extra motivated not to watch.
I want to see spies in disguis with a new character, that happens to be black. Not an other remake of established character.
I’ve never seen any of the movies, so probably not. Them passing the title to a black woman wouldn’t have made a difference for me though, if I was a fan of the movies.
Nah, action movies are boring as fuck. I think what they're doing is stupid, but I had no desire to see it in the first place.
I never really cared for James Bond.. This news doesn't really sway it for me.. I mean they probably just gon end up makin her not too far from Bond..
It's a tired franchise anyway. Daniel Craig is grossly overrated and strikingly wooden. The role doesn't come naturally to him either so he overplays it badly.
Casting a black woman as 007 has a subtext that a lot of people don't pick up on. It's intended as a symbolic castration.
I'll see it. I'm kinda a bond girl, myself and think it's something fresh for the franchise. I'm partial to Sean Connery, Roger Moore and Pierce Bronson being Bond.
I'm not interested in watching 007 movies and I'm not going to watch it just because of this change.
This makes no sense and it's definitely a marketing strategy.
Everyone gets replaced by black women... gay men... and just women now... no I won't even try this one mostly because the... questionable comments the people involved with it have made...
I was going to watch it, but not after the news surrounding 007.
I wasn’t gonna see it anyway. Can Hollywood just stop with all the remakes?🤦♀️
Wait? is this fake news or is this real?
I pretty sure it is fake because i would've already known about, Twitter would've talked about it
Very real, unfortunately
I did watch the last couple of Bond films, so I'll probably watch this one too. I personally don't really care about this change, especially as they just create a new character
