x Though Daniel Craig’s still set to make one more film in the role in the upcoming Bond 25, all anyone can talk about right now is who will be the next actor to take on the 007 codename. Recently, interest in the internet’s old favorite fan cast Idris Elba piqued again as it was rumored that EON were thinking of choosing him to replace Craig.

Chengelis The Detroit News Published 6:54 p.m. UTC Aug 15, 2018 Ann Arbor — Michigan cornerbacks coach Mike Zordich knows that a few carefully dropped comments at a news conference find their way into print,onto the internet and social media and then find their way to the intended target.
