  If they did put a black James Bond, it'll probably bomb at the box office. James Bond has always been a white character, it's not the same as inventing a black secret agent character and plot (Which will still stink). It's pretty much like the Green lantern from the Justice league. He too was originally white, however once they changed his character to black the character became not as popular. Sure they could get away with it, unfortunately, but it won't be as popular IMO.   The Black Catwoman movie was one of the biggest bombs in Hollywood history too. A Black James Bond would definitely be a box office failure, most Bond fans are White and I don't think they'd be too crazy about a Black Bond. I really think most White people are getting sick of seeing all of these characters that are supposed to be White being made Black. It's bad enough they have a Black Felix Leiter in the Bond movies now:rolleyes:
