712472, he'd be at least the 2nd oldest bond ever, and maybe the 1st.

the 6 previous bond actors, and their ages at the time of their first film's release:
connery - 32
lazenby - 30
moore - 46
dalton - 41
brosnan - 42
craig - 40
idris turns 44 this summer. by the time bond 25 is completed and released, he'll be 45-46 years old. possibly 47. if he signs on to do 4 films, as craig and brosnan did, he'd be in his mid-fifties by the end of the contract.
he's too old. he'd have made a great bond, but it's time to move on already. guys like hardy, hiddleston and oyelowo are more in the age range that they should be looking at.
