Pierce Brosnan, who played the debonair spy in four films between 1994 and 2002, gave Idris his backing during an interview with the
Radio Times this week.
Asked whether he thought Idris would make a good Bond, Pierce replied, "Yeah, he would actually. Colin Salmon also. May the best man
get the job, and may Daniel bring home the bacon for as long as he wants."
Pierce isn't the first star to endorse London-born Idris for the job; Kanye West has said the casting would be "visionary".
The US rapper told the Sun, "I know Idris a little bit and he is a big talent. The movies he has been making are special, and when the role for James Bond comes up it needs to be his.
"James Bond is a role made for British actors and you won't find a British actor who has the talent of Idris. To be honest, you won't find
many anywhere who have his talent.
