JAMES BONDING? Idris Elba clicks an awkward selfie with Daniel Craig at the Golden Globe Awards, fuels talk about Bond role again
Idris Elba is just loving being a tease to fans who are still speculating about him being the next James Bond. The actor, who was attending the Golden Globes on Sunday, managed to click quite the 'awkward' selfie with the current James Bond star Daniel Craig at California's Beverly Hilton Hotel.
The 'Luther' actor took to Instagram to share the selfie that featured Craig who will reprise the role in Bond 25', which is set to hit cinemas in 2020. The upcoming movie will mark Craig's fifth entry into the franchise, following 'Casino Royale', 'Quantum Of Solace', 'Skyfall', and 'Spectre'.
Speaking about the possibility of playing the iconic character last year, Elba, who has been a frontrunner for the coveted Bond role, said: "I think it’s more about, 'We just want to have a black guy play James Bond' rather than, 'Idris Elba, the actor, play James Bond.' That’s the part I’m like, 'Ugh, come on.'"
