I wanted to give you guys some scenes from the Idris Elba Greatest hits album. I am going to do this until the release of the film. These are both pretty light on the spoilers.
First The Wire, Idris Elba plays the second in command to a drug Empire, and the bosses nephew is dropping off his earnings for the day. It is a subtle scene, not very flashy, but the brilliance of Idris is on display, especially considering he is a Brit.
Next is from Luther, Idris is John Luther and he has come face to face with a killer who has been put on the path by his emotionally abusive and manipulative father. Here Idris plays a man not as hard-edged as Roland on the surface but as the scene goes on you see the mettle that is just below the surface.
Might be off topic but Anthony Breznican also had a story and reveal of the first look at It from the upcoming film. Since we mentioned it HERE is a link, coulrophobics beware.
