Possible James Bond Idris Elba just CRUSHED this fellow actor's dream (but all is NOT lost)

Idris Elba as James Bond would make a lot of people very, very happy. Many of those people would be women, we reckon. But where does that leave Richard Dreyfuss?

Six months of firearms training, all for nothing. https://t.co/YhX07gZb94

Talk about a bummer. This could’ve been pretty epic.

I would watch a Bond/Goodbye Girl mashup.

BLOFELD: Now, Mr. Bond. You will see the . . . you said you were decent.

BOND: [naked] I am decent. I am also naked. [strums chord on guitar]

Sounds pretty promising.

Hey, I would pay big bucks to see that!

Same. Totally worth it.

I'm still rooting for you. Not too late to turn this thing around.

You’ll get it next time, buddy!

You never know unless you try! Meanwhile, there’s still a silver lining for Dreyfuss:

You can never go wrong with firearm training
