It turns out you can find Idris Elba's Cyberpunk 2077 character hanging out and working a regular job in Night City before you start the expansion

CD Projekt Red always brings a special attention to detail in its games: I remember my shock at learning about the Witcher 3 easter egg that takes seven in-game years to find. That same sensibility definitely holds strong in Cyberpunk 2077, where you can actually find Idris Elba's character, Solomon Reed—who was added to the game in the Phantom Liberty expansion—tucked away in Night City minding his own business before you start Phantom Liberty's main quest.

Madd Gamer on YouTube shared a video of the encounter late last year. In an early conversation with Reed, the New United States superspy tells off his boss over the phone before explaining that he has a day job as a bouncer to help keep cover. A neat enough little character detail, but you can actually be (almost) bounced by Reed before you even know who he is.
