Nope. No Way. Sorry. Call me a bigot if you want but the character James Bond is a white british male. You wouldn't let a white actor to play the part of Shaft because he doesn't fit the character. Plain & simple. Now..... if you wanted to create a NEW character from MI6. Say 004 or something like that and let P. Diddy play him (provided he can act) then more power to you.

But for the record, having anyone buy a white guy play Bond would be the equivlent of an white guy playing Malcom X.

totally equivalent... except malcom x was a civil rights leader, and bond was a fictionaal character from a series of spy novels.
