The actor Idris Elba has again downplayed his chances of donning the tuxedo of British super-spy James Bond. “I think I’m too old for that – running around in cars and ladies and martinis,” he said. The original got Bond wrong by confusing Sean Connery with Roger Moore. The average age of an actor making their debut as Bond is just over 40 years old. Speaking to the TV show Good Morning America, Elba, 43, cited his age as the key reason he felt he wasn’t a contender.
