Culture Lashana Lynch deleted all her social media to cope with the backlash against being the first Black female 007 - Maybe it's not because it's she black and or a woman, maybe it's because Sean Connery just fucking died and people are pissed that they immediately decided to shill out a reboot.

Lashana Lynch will play the first Black female 007 in the James Bond movie "No Time to Die," Harper's Bazaar confirmed in a new profile of the actress.

While the confirmation is new, news of Lynch's role leaked last year, leading to a backlash from people online who weren't ready for a Black woman as a secret agent.

"For a week, she deleted her social-media apps, meditated and saw no one but family, while comforting herself with the knowledge that the aggressive comments were ultimately not personal," Yrsa Daley-Ward wrote of Lynch.

"I am one Black woman -- if it were another Black woman cast in the role, it would have been the same conversation, she would have got the same attacks, the same abuse," Lynch said. "I just have to remind myself that the conversation is happening and that I'm a part of something that will be very, very revolutionary."

Lynch in "No Time to Die." United Artists
According to the Harper's Bazaar story, Lynch's character, Nomi, takes over the 007 spy code name when James Bond (Daniel Craig) disappears following the events of "Spectre."

Daley-Ward wrote that Lynch worked closely with the "No Time to Die" co-screenwriter Phoebe Waller-Bridge (the creator of "Fleabag") to have Nomi be a "fresh female perspective" in the male-focused franchise.

Lynch also said there was another goal in having a role like this in such an anticipated movie.

"I didn't want to waste an opportunity when it came to what Nomi might represent," she said. "I searched for at least one moment in the script where Black audience members would nod their heads, tutting at the reality but glad to see their real life represented. In every project I am part of, no matter the budget or genre, the Black experience that I'm presenting needs to be 100 percent authentic."

"No Time To Die" is set to be in theaters on April 2.

I have a feeling this movie is going to do badly enough to tank the franchise. Besides Craig being a meh Bond at best, no one wants to see the role / character destroyed and mangled just to appease the gods of progressivism.

It will get those rave reviews from the sites that are desperate for pander points and everyone who doesn't like it will be called a misogynist man baby who feels threatened by female leads in traditionally male roles. Then everyone will promptly forget it exists because it's just too poor quality and embarrassing. Just like the Ghostbusters remake.

Hans Landa as Blofeld and they managed to fuck it up. How do you even?

Easily. Just tell Christoph Waltz to be a serious actor. Might as well tell Brian Blessed to do the same.

After the Dark Tower, I’ve figured it out... this isn’t them cashing in on being woke to make more money. It’s them knowing that people will shield any valid criticism by saying it’s just coming from racists. I saw people who should be livid about the Dark Tower film pissing all over the books instead out there rabidly defending it and telling people to watch it just to “show racists they can’t win”.

The fact they’re doing this means they know they’ve got a flop, but they know this will at least keep some money coming in for it.

Sucker born every minute, indeed.

We could have had Idris Elba as Bond, but we had to go triple down on the affirmative action and pick someone who's black, female, AND a shit actor.

I said this last year and I will say it now, why not cast HOT women for this shit? It seems they always go for average/ugly looking ones when trying to pander to the diversity crowd.

There's been a ruckus in China about this, a lot of Chinese people have been complaining that Hollywood only casts ugly Chinese actors, and they have loads of popular hot Chinese actors who never get a look in except in Chinese media. They say people in the West must think the whole population is ugly and they don't want to be represented like that. I don't know how widespread an opinion that is, though, and how much it's just drummed up for gossip sites and magazines. Personally I think they just look normal, and maybe media would be more realistic if normal schlubby characters are played by normal schlubby looking actors, but when it's elite super spies and when white people are played by ridiculously fit actors it's a weird standard.

Its great that we can have a "birthing person of color" as 007.

 

[Ira the Weatherman]

Everybody likes Lana Kane from Archer, nobody has a problem with the concept of black female secret agent in the abstract. The problem is black and gender washing 007. Sorry, that character is a white male that at least puts on a British accent. Flip it around - just like nobody would have a problem with a white chick as a superhero, unless we called her Black Panther because Black Panther is a black male.

Fuck these dipshits.

Hell, changing Bond's gender and race wouldn't be a guarantee of failure if they bothered to make a good film. But all these pozzed films are objectively bad, often to the point where the wokeshit is the least of their problems. These idpol shenanigans are always a symptom of deeper lazy design-by-committee thinking that inevitably churns out garbage. Because blackwashing character is just a retarded gimmick, and you have to wonder where the suits' priorities lie when they imagine that will be a movie's main selling point.

It's reaching the point where 'get woke, go broke' is becoming a self-fulfilling propechy, and not just an observation. Even the normalest of fags are starting to avoid these movies, because they're recognizing that the mark of woke = unenjoyable film.

If the film is not fun, why bother?

I'm 90% sure this is about Rose Tico and I should have said that in general, if you are gonna base your entire movie around diversity actors at least get good looking ones, say what you want about media imposible beauty standars but damn if I'm gonna watch fiction at least choose someone easy on the eyes, specially if they are meant to paint a minority in a good light.

If you want to put your tinfoil hat on it's also part of a pattern of demoralising and reprogramming of western society. See also the marketing material that features mixed race couples, always a black male with white female etc

That's another thing I don't get, there are plenty of oil drillers out there, if their end game is to make everyone a low IQ mulatto like /pol/ claims, wouldn't it make sense to also "advertise" white male/black female couples as well?

IIRC it was the live action Mulan remake, they didn't think the men were handsome enough to be proper leading men. It might be different beauty standards in different cultures but they weren't happy.

Casting Good looking azns and blacks might also attract accusations of catering to white male jungle/yellow fever,

Well if your intention is to suborn the west, you'd probably prefer to push coal burners as they're inevitably left holding babby with no support from daddy whereas mud chasing white men who knock up a sheboon are more likely to stick around and raise the kid

The only people who care about the diversity in movies are all ugly, so it only makes sense that they only cast ugly people for these movies.

Social media is a modern creation. Unless you're a kid, it didn't exist for the majority your life. People can live without it. Who gives a fuck if a millionaire steps away? Pay me millions to be in a movie and I'll be okay with speds shit talking me on Twitter. It's not like I have to read that.

I'm okay with Bond being a woman as long as it's a very butch scottish woman. My boomer dad hates the Craig movies but he is a big Bond fan. I asked him what he thinks of this.

"It's fucking retarded, Bond? Not a woman."

 

[White Devil]

007 is Bond. I don't think its any quite clearer than that. There are other 00 agents but 7 has always been Bond except in the 1967 Casino Royale and the reasoning behind it was fucking dumb.
