Idris, thank you for clarifying what none of media/internet legitimately would speak true on. Would have loved to have seen Idris as 007, but I have mad respect for him going with his own legend. Can’t wait to see Luther!!!☕️cheers
Yep, the man's done a lot of great things, tackling knife crime being no small part of it. I can see many actors playing James Bond, but I can only see one man playing Luther.
As a ex Londoner living there in the early 99 2000s in Uni and working and now as a New Yorker since 04 , Idris is a Top Bloke Top Clobber Top Dj Top Man loves his Guinness and Footy but Luther is by far his best work besides his House Music!!!
Luther- ADHD Inattentive in the London house.
Alba should star in other movies too! Come on! He's a great talent!
Yes for Luher!!!!!!!!!!!!! But come on, bring back Alice!!!!!!

Who wrote the WIRE and LUTHER…in original books ?
❤❤❤🎉
Yes
Luther was an Idea of what Idris would have been like as James Bond
Do yourself a favor folks, and check out the mini-series "Guerrilla"(2017).
EXCELLENT QUESTIONS; Thoughtful and intelligent👍
Idris is ill… tbh he should be the next Bond villian
The way I answered yes so fast to her question about the movie being enough if you haven't watched the series.
the one and only Idris❤
We love a dancing do #unclewaffles
Bravo to Luther the movie and looking forward to hearing more about the Ghana creative exchange… Vanessa Williams and other creatives are demonstrating forward thinking like Mr. Elba mentioned bravo to everyone 👏👏👏👏
Watched the movie. Loved it. Now I gotta go back and watch the series. It's wild that these guys didn't know Andy Serkis.
cmon Idris, Taking that 007 role was BIGGER than you! you shoul dhave taken it!!
Nollywood, build your studio. They will come.
luther was brilliant TV
I love Idris, but I can't get into Luther.
Ghana 🇬🇭
Andy Serkis was also Claw in the first Black Panther. Beast was a good movie.
Ebro often comes across as competing w/the guest. Idris speaks on James Bond, and Ebro needs everyone to know that he wasn't going to go into that because he already knew. Come on. Center the guest. Let the interview be about the guest. Also, Ebro taking little shots at guests is unprofessional and it's awkward for the audience.
Yoh Idris! Kenya! Definitely come to Kenya. We have loads of experienced crew, amazing locations and weather, and now working on legislation for better incentives.. So, the film industry here is definitely ready.
People want to see Idris do the Suave James Bond thing, he would be an awesome 007. Luther is much more a darker character so he doesnt really have an opportunity to be suave in that series
20.35 good point
I fell in love the the show years ago. Then the movie hit the spot. So happy to hear there’s going to be 4 more. They have to figure out a way to bring Alice back!
I will not accept it if he isn't the new bond.
The next Luther bring him to New York I would say LA but it’s too hot. He got to wear that jacket and that red tie. let him shoot a gun for the first time and miss. Then he can get fed up and throw the gun at the bad guy pick it back up and beat the bad guy to death.
I’ll watch Luther, never seen it, but I am now intrigued!
I don’t blame him for turning down the James Bond 007 role…
That was probably a poison chalice for a black man to play anyway. 🧐 Im glad Idris is sticking to his roots!⭐️🇬🇭✊🏾💥
Love Luther !
The Boot Street Band…
When I heard about the movie I remembered I haven't watched the movie. I'm in season 2 and I love it, great to see him doing things in Ghana too it's time for Africa.
Big fan of Idris!!
one of the Black dudes who has chnage the movie industry, my respect to Idris is bigger than the ocean ❤ I'm glad he's investing in the motherland Ghana 🇬🇭
Complex is nice word to describe Luther.
I just started to watch Luther series, it is quite dark but I enjoy it.
Since Ebro isn’t aware, here is a new tip for him, all interviewers, and everyone – never give away key spoilers when talking about movies. It “spoils” and ruins the element of surprise for people who haven’t watched it yet. This is regarding Ebro talking about what the “Luther” character goes through.
Love from the Motherland, Idris ❤
I lover Luther
Luther's that deal, good film
