Speaking to Glamour magazine, the 38-year-old said that she finds the star rather sexy and there's no reason why he shouldn't take on the iconic role after Daniel Craig.

She said: 'I think Idris should have been Bond a long time ago…why wouldn’t he be Bond?
'I love him and adore him and honestly believe that he is one of the sexiest men alive - and my husband won’t mind me saying that because, trust me, he agrees with me.'
Well-known for playing Uhura in Star Trek, the star also said she feels the world is ready for the movie to finally have a sex scene.
She said: 'Yeah! I would love that. I mean, it’s logical to assume that people have sex in space, right?'
The star is mother to two-year-old twin boys Cy and Bowie and she says that it's important to her that they grow up in a world where gender is not restrictive.
She said: 'I want my boys to grow up in a world where there are no gender differences to speak of.
'Not everything should come down to the fact that you’re a man or a woman, or this colour or from this culture.'
Zoe looks incredible in the accompanying photoshoot which sees her wearing a beautiful black semi-sheer dress which cinches in at the waist.
She has a host of movies in the pipeline and July 21 sees the release of Star Trek Beyond.
