When will 007 be an American? A non-white person? A woman?

With the BBC and other media breaking all manner of dialectal, racial and gender barriers, certainly it is only inevitable that the 007 franchise will reflect the diversity of Britain, the Anglosphere, and even the world. So, I wonder, when will 007 be an American? When will he be a non-white person? When will he be a woman? (I know I wrote "he" and not "she".)

    Soon, don't think they're not working on it.

    The Jewish Bond will be Agent 006.99.

    The Non- white Bond will be Jamal Bond.

    The Chinese Bond will be called Junk Bond.

    The American Bond will be Jimmy Bond.

    The Female Bond will be Agent 44d.

    The Gay Bond will be James Bend.

    The Sadomasochistic Bond will be James Bind.

    The Non-Sectarian Extremist Bond will be James Bombed (possibly with a Femme Fatale called Burkha Galore).

    007 has been built on a stable base of a certain image. Now im guessing since there trying a blonde and blue eyed bond that things are changing.It will be some years before its a american white guy. never a black guy although they may try i honestly don't see it doing good unless they change the style/feel of it.. and a woman she most likely wont have the same 007 tradition which it probably wont do good either. the brand has a particular style to it, So to change it might be the end of 007.

    James Bond is the brainchild of the late Ian Fleming, who was a spy during WW II, keeping an eye on Gerry in Jamaica, back when it was British. He wrote those (8?) books in the late 50s and early 60s, so there can't be too many changes to Bond. As such, the character is white, British, and male.

    Hallie was supposed to get her own Bond spion off film series but I don't know what happened to that. Probably back burnered after they had to make the Daniel Craig change. BOnd can't be American... it would diminsh the sense of class you expect from Bond. What's he gong to wear a white sirt, jeans and UGG boots to fight Specter

  • The movie series lasted this long why break tradition. I don't think an Asian or Jew or African American Bond would make sense to it's diehard fans.

    Probably never as it's based on a book series.
