As the casting for Jurassic World continues to heat up, we have news of a possible addition that's sure to please most of you CBMers. Jurassic World Movie.com cite a source "fairly close to Jurassic World's development" as revealing to them that sci-fi/comic book flick staple Idris Elba has signed on to star in the movie. Although the site adds that we should take this with the ever ready pinch of salt, Acting Auditions have also posted a casting notice for the movie, calling for actors and crew in Louisiana where some of Jurassic World will be shot, and Elba’s name pops up twice as being part of the cast. Still, without official word on this we have to treat it as hearsay..but how awesome would it be if Elba was set to battle dinos alongside Josh Brolin? We'll update if and when we hear anything else.

This would be awesome.

Also, he would be perfect for James Bond. I would go with Black Panther but Marvel Studios already casted him as Hemdall.
