Kanye West wants Idris Elba to be next James Bond

Kanye West has backed actor Idris Elba for the role of James Bond by saying that he really wants the actor to be the next and the first black Bond actor, as he thinks it would be visionary.

West said that the role is made for British actors and one wouldn't find a British actor who has the talent like Elba, the Mirror reported. Kim Kardashian's husband added that no one can fit the role as well as Elba will, as he has a bundle of talent.

Talk show host Rush Limbaugh had earlier said that Elba can't be Bond because he was black.
