Radio host Rush Limbaugh has a very negative reaction to the possibility of actor Idris Elba playing James Bond after Daniel Craig’s run as the iconic character is over.

Idris Elba Opens Up To GQ Magazine

“James Bond is a fictional character, obviously,” he said. “And James Bond is a total concept put together by Ian Fleming. He was white and Scottish. Period. That is who James Bond is.”

Craig, who is set to return as James Bond for the next two films - Spectre and Bond 25 - in the long-running series, is expected to give up his title after the last is released.

“But now Sony is suggesting that the next James Bond should be Idris Elba, a black Briton rather than a white from Scotland,” the conservative political commentator continued. “But that’s not who James Bond is, and I know it’s racist to probably even point this out.”

Limbaugh went on to say the character was never played by a black character solely because of the description created by Fleming.

Many were shocked by Limbaugh’s statements and took to Twitter to mock him.
