Certainly I don't have issues with female or black actresses, but why do they have to keep doing these annoying things where they mess around with the original source material? I have zero desire to see a female actress as James Bond 007.

And 'revolutionary?' Right.

Before the BLM movement it was required to have a women in movies leading rolls, now if you don't have a black (man or women) you are a racist.

Have you noticed the TV commercials of late....they all have a majority of Blacks in them. Oh how easy Hollywood and big business is swayed to the favor of the day in their movies roll castings and commercials.

It's not going to be a James Bond movie, it's going to be a "lady spy" movie. The idea of it being "revolutionary" is just made up nonsense to make something seem important when it isn't.

Been googling. Sounds like she’s just trolling. She doesn’t have any more idea who the next James Bond is than we do. Everything else sounds like it’ll be male.
