Idris Elba and Bond Producers meet to discuss being offered the role of Bond. We think the conversation went something like this.
Bond Producers: "Idris, we would love you for Bond, this is the right time..."
Elba: " Right time for what?"
Bond Producers: "You know"
Elba: "No I don't know"
Bond Producers: "A black Bond"
Elba: "I'll pass, don't want to be the "black bond" it's kinda corny"
(Sir Sean Connery' sends a text message to Elba while he is talking with the producers....text reads..."hey laddie, don't forget the money"....
Bond Producers: "are we keeping you from something" (annoyed)
Elba: "No not all, how much would you pay me to play Bond? I mean it's gotta be more than Danny boy, and you gonna need to catch up with the Mission Impossibles...You know watta mean.....here's how much I want along with a Producers credit and final say on the script..."
( Idris writes how much he wants on a piece of paper and hands it to the producers. Bond producers open note and are wide eyed and shocked. They look at each other and scream..)
Bond Producers: "CONNERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
(Sir Connery laughs from afar)
