Spin-off serie

Hello everyone,
I had an idea and I guess I'm not the first one. What would you think of a Spin-Off serie? The Bondserie is over 60 year old, including the books. They did had a few spin-off's while the we had the Bond Films as we all know them, and a Bond Jr. serie in the 90s. While the books had The MP Diaries, the Young Bond serie, a comic serie. I don't say we have to film them, but it did gave me some ideas.
How about a 00 spin-off in the form of a TV serie. Some as 002, Bill Fairbanks and his story. Maybe with all the controversy about Bond having to be black or a woman, you could have a black 002 and leave Bond white. Or do the series about a woman.
Or something else, having a Ian Fleming Bond TV serie. Altough the earlier films were quite close to Fleming his books. You could still make a TV/film serie about his books which follows his line perfectly. You could let it take place in the 50s and do it in the right chronological way. I do really like those idea's myself and would watch them a 100%. Especially when Ralph Fiennes would play Sir Miles Messervy. Although I think you need a different Moneypenny and Q for a spin-off. As much as I ADORE Harris and Whishaw, I don't think they don't have a 50s look as Fiennes could have.
But it all can be confusing for people. I'd love to read your opinons. -{

Prequel film about Mallory as an agent.
Felix Leiter TV series, maybe with a couple of cameos from the film series (presumably this can be done by an American studio)
Yeah I didn't thought about Felix Leiter, that would be great indeed.
Another idea could be an MI6 based spin off series. Obviously because of the profile of the actors in the film you would probably have to recast but follow M/Q/Moneypenny/Tanner/Goodnight(as character from the books) as well as some new team members and agents. Give it a larger London focus and perhaps toned down action and greater focus on espionage. Perhaps an ongoing story arc per season to pace out the story, villains and character development amongst the team.
So using other 00's or Felix would be interesting
