> “I don’t mind who plays James Bond as long as it is me,” Ahmed said about 007 casting rumors before playfully storming off the set when co-star Guz Kahn informed him: “I think Jacob Elordi will be James Bond over Riz Ahmed.”
> “To be honest, this show is not about Bond,” Ahmed added on a more serious note. “James Bond in our show is a symbol of what my character wants to be, the ultra alpha-male. He just wants to be someone else, which so many of us want to be. That’s the relatable part.”

Loved him in Rogue One & Sound of Metal.
He’s a talented actor but he’s not Bond.
Ahmed is an *amazing* actor, although I can’t see him as Bond.
Rahul Kohli though, after Death and Little Details, I get the vibe he’d be an excellent choice.
Isn’t this just promotion for this new show [“Bait”? The six-part series follows the Brit as struggling actor Shah Latif, played by Ahmed, whose world implodes when he finds out he’s in the running for James Bond](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/riz-ahmed-comedy-bait-prime-1236478511/)
Yeah, good luck. Everyone loves Idris Elba. But float his name for James Bond and folks want to burn down the entire film industry.
Doesn’t really have the charm atleast from what I’ve seen , pretty sure he’s got the height and the chin tho
Let him walk if you ask me, I hope he’s not next he’s a little person irl I saw him in a chair his feet didn’t touch the ground even.
lol, no, it should be Dev Patel.
They’ll let him be Q at best.
He’s not Bond. There’s no gravitas or authority to him. Even him voicing Snape in the audible Harry Potter is weak.
Not before Idres Elba
You can always tell didn’t read the article in the OP.
This is a reminder for me to have my yearly watch for Nightcrawler
