Will Smith: First Black James Bond?

will smith james bond

Will Smith has set his sights on being the first black James Bond. The actor believes he’s a better candidate than rivals P Diddy, 39, and Jamie Foxx, 41.

First off Puff just isn’t in the running, he may think he is but that’s just never going to happen. As for Jamie Foxx, well I just can’t see that happening, can you?

‘Puff probably lives the most like James Bond, and Jamie Foxx has got the swagger and can sing, so he can add a new element to the role,’ he says.

‘But I think I can guarantee the box office’, and I have to agree with Will. I love the Bond movies but for me Daniel Craig is no James Bond.

In the meantime, Will, 41, is concentrating on finalising plans for another Men In Black film.
