He'll be too old to play him again.

Next choice will be interesting.

I don't get this pc shit where people say he should be played by a black guy or even a woman.

I wouldn't have any objection - I wanted Idris Elba to do it - but the character was created as he was by Ian Fleming and he should remain that way in my book. As said above Shaft would never be played by a white guy and so he shouldn't.

I would have an objection if he became a she mind and played by a woman that would be fucking mental.

I have a friend who's a Jack Reacher fan - been reading the books since day one - and he was fuming when Cruise got to play him on screen as Reacher is meant to be 6 foot 6. And I get where he's coming from.
