Los Angeles, Aug 25 : Hollywood actor Idris Elba is irritated by the people who constantly ask him questions about his role as James Bond.The actor is rumoured to replace Daniel Craig as 007, the actor, who is 49, admitted that he is annoyed with the constant inquiries about the rumors, according aceshowbiz.com.
“I don’t have any answers to this,” Idris said as he spoke on the “Jemele Hill is Unbothered” podcast.
“I simply tell people “aw don’t ask me about to do that.’ ”
Elba believes he has answered all questions regarding his role as the famous spy, and believes it “lazy” that he is constantly being asked questions by media.
The actor stated, “A lot of times it’s just lazy journalism.
People attempt to use it to create clickbait such as “what’s he going to say this time?’ I attempt to say the same things.Every now and then , I simply jokingly mock them however occasionally I’ll offer them a reason about why I don’t want to do it or the reason it’s an unsubstantiated rumor.However, most of the time I’m not likely to discuss it.”
Recently, it was reported that Idris was a part of discussions with Bond officials in order to explore “his own movie franchise” however, the actor has suggested other possible Bond characters to producer Barbara Broccoli.
An insider said to The Sun newspaper, “Fans and Barbara were looking for Idris but he is looking to make some kind of thing for himself.But, he’s also proposed names to play the role of 007.He’s “informally” in the process of making decisions since the producer has been in talks with producers for a while.”
A film insider has recently claimed that the new Bond must be younger than 40 and taller than 5 feet 10 inches.
The source told us that the movie industry is looking to bring in an actor in their “late 30s” to allow him to remain in the role for at minimum a decade, or maybe three films.
