Idris Elba shares new single and speaks out to ban ‘zombie knives’ and machetes

Idris Elba has shared a new single, demanding the UK government to take more concrete action to ban ‘zombie knives’ and machetes.The new track, titled ‘Knives Down’, sees the actor put pressure on politicians in the UK to crack down on the number of knife-related crimes across the country, in a bid to reduce the number of young people losing their lives.Speaking with the BBC, he also accused politicians of not giving the issue “the focus it deserves”.Zombie knives are defined as weapons having “a cutting edge, a serrated edge and images or words suggesting they are used for violence”. They were added to a list of prohibited offensive weapons in 2016, but criticism still followed, as the sale of the knives still exists online.Featuring DB Maz and produced by Fraser T Smith and FaNaTiX, ‘Knives Down’ features hard-hitting lyrics which urge Parliament to take urgent action, more so than ever before.“My guy, you don’t look fly with the samurai and its blood dirty/ Eyes cry in the neighbourhood when the blood spills when they die early,” read the opening lyrics.

Andrew Scott says Paul Mescal would make a “great” James Bond

Andrew Scott has revealed his thoughts on Paul Mescal potentially playing James Bond.Speaking to Variety at a special screening of All Of Us Strangers in Los Angeles this past Saturday (December 9), Scott said of his co-star: “He’d probably be a great James Bond.”However, Scott also shared that he’d like to see Mescal’s performing in the upcoming Gladiator sequel, which Mescal is currently filming for in Malta alongside Pedro Pascal, Denzel Washington and Connie Nielsen.Talks of who the next Bond might be have been rampant ever since Daniel Craig revealed all the way back in 2019 that No Time To Die would be his final time playing the character, who – spoiler alert – was killed off at the end of the 2021 film.Earlier in November, Bond producer Greg Wilson confirmed that they are not yet working on the next film at this stage. “There will be another Bond some day, but we’re not actively developing it,” he said.And with rumours flying around about who might play the next Bond, series producer Barbara Broccoli addressed the new phase of the story following the character’s death at the end of No Time To Die by saying, “It’s gonna take a while for us to get – you know, it’s a whole new reinvention.

This is the public’s choice to play the next James Bond

Idris Elba has been named as the UK’s top choice to play the next James Bond, according to a new poll.Conducted by William Hill Vegas, the nationwide survey polled 3,500 Bond fans, asking them to name their ideal pick to take over from Daniel Craig, whose tenure as 007 came to an end with No Time To Die.Elba, who has previously been linked with the role, emerged at the very top of the list with 17.5 percent of the public’s vote.His fellow long-term frontrunner Tom Hardy came just behind on 16.6 percent, narrowly ahead of Henry Cavill on 16.5 percent.However, those wishing to see any of these three actors take up the mantle of 007 are likely to be disappointed, given that franchise producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson have previously stated that the next actor will need to be in their early 30s, and be able to commit to the role for at least 10 year.One of the current favourites to become the next Bond is 33-year-old Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who recently refused to rule out the casting.Elsewhere in William Hill Vegas’ survey, fans were also asked to vote for their all-time favourite Bond movie.Skyfall, starring Daniel Craig, topped the list with 17.5 percent of the vote, far ahead of the second-placed Goldfinger (8.5 percent), starring the late Sean Connery.
