Is Idris Elba the next 007? The actor has just dropped a major hint after numerous speculations this week about him taking on the role of James Bond. Elba tweeted the classic Bond introduction on August 12, "My name is Elba. Idris Elba" sending fans into a frenzy.

Elba has been at the center of the conversation about the future of the franchise, especially since Bond producer Barbara Broccoli told director Antoine Fuqua that "it is time" for a non-white actor to star as 007. Although the rumors have been going around since 2014, they have neither been confirmed or denied.
