In an interview with Buzzfeed, the actress discussed her social media presence, thoughts on the new Bond, and feminist themes in The Fall.

Tom Hiddleston's thoughts on his chances of obtaining the coveted James Bond role were none too bright.

Fall Out Boy sent out a tweet this afternoon promoting the news that they'll be contributing to the Ghostbusters soundtrack--along with, um, Missy freakin' Elliot? This is delightful news on this here Thorsday, thank you and goodnight.

Upon hearing that Emilia Clarke in an interview with Daily Star would "love to play James Bond" with Leonardo DiCaprio as her Bond Boy, Rolling Stone took it upon themselves to make a fan trailer of the two.

At this point, it would appear as if some fans are more than ready for the mantle of James Bond to be taken up by someone other than a white dude--but in terms of talks happening behind closed doors, one name is being offered up: Tom Hiddleston.

Last weekend, a crafty fan made a poster of Gillian Anderson as the next James Bond, which Anderson herself then shared on Twitter.

From Idris Elba to Priyanka Chopra, there's an obvious desire from many fans and some actors for women and people of color to take more of a central role in the Bond franchise.

Tom Hiddleston opened up to The Sunday Times about how he'd like to maybe one day play James Bond, and he does it in the most polite fashion.
