Radio talk show host and conservative political commentator, Rush Limbaugh recently expressed his objection towards "Avengers: Age of Ultron" actor, Idris Elba being considered to play the iconic role of James Bond. 

Limbaugh's public objection towards Elba as James Bond follows the recently hacked Sony emails that feature Sony Entertainment co-chairman, Amy Pascal naming Elba as a favorable prospect to replace Daniel Craig as the next Bond, the Daily Beast reports. 

Earlier this week, Limbaugh addressed the hacked James Bond Sony emails on his radio show and argued that Elba should not be casted as Bond because he is black, E! News reports. 

"James Bond is a total concept put together by Ian Fleming. He was white and Scottish. Period. That is who James Bond is," Limbaugh said on his show. "But now [they are] suggesting that the next James Bond should be Idris Elba, a black Briton, rather than a white from Scotland. But that's not who James Bond is."

Limbaugh continued his rant against Elba by acknowledging that his statements sounded racist. 

"I know it's racist to probably point this out," he said. 

So far, Elba has yet to respond to Limbaugh's comments. However, E! News reports that the 42-year-old actor previously told NPR that if he was casted in the role, he wanted to be acknowledged as the next James Bond and not the first black James Bond. 

"I just don't want to be called the first black James Bond. Do you understand what I'm saying? Sean Connery wasn't the Scottish James Bond and Daniel Craig wasn't the blue-eyed James Bond. So if I played him, I don't want to be called the black James Bond," he explained. 

Meanwhile, Elba's James Bond predecessor, Daniel Craig has publicly voiced his desire to step away from the Bond series. 

"I've been trying to get out of this from the very moment I got into it," Craig told Rolling Stone about the Bond film franchise.  "But they won't let me go, and I've agreed to do a couple more, but let's see how this one does..."

Craig is set to appear as James Bond in the upcoming film, "Spectre" out in theaters on November 6, 2015, the Daily Beast reports.
