Fans of the hit TV series Luther are celebrating after Idris Elba revealed that he is to star as the titular character in an upcoming Netflix film. The Hollywood star made the announcement on his Instagram account along with a promotional video teasing his return as DCI John Luther.
The Mirror reveals that the film, titled Luther: The Fallen Sun, will be released in cinemas on February 24 before being available to stream online on Netflix on March 10. Idris, 50, looked stony-faced in the trailer as he stared down the camera in the short clip.
He did not break his stance as two voiceovers sounded in the promo video. One said: "Something's coming," before another added: "You see me now?"
