Idris is extremely good looking, successful, funny, tall, and seems like he's a genuinely nice guy. What a jerk.

YES, I love cyberpunk so much a shame it wasn't brought up here
the fact that he was that savage about Arsenal has made me like him even more. 'the only red team you need to know about'
He's going to stay really handsome for a long time. He's got the Ernie Hudson magic.

Idris’ stint on “The Office” is one of my favorite things in comedy ever. Charles Manor is GOATED.
I love his dj sets as much as his acting 👍
What a fine man 🤩
That look when he said I eat other stuff as well
Idris is the greatest Heimdall ever.
I just love this man.
Solomon Reed!!
I love him so much
Easily one of the coolest people on the planet.
Love how he comes across here, seems like a very genuine and normal guy 👍
Just when i thought he couldn't get any better. The man drives an electric car with an orange interior, and has a healthy appetite.
I love him!
It was criminal that he had so little screen time in American Gangster. A good movie if you've never seen it.
Second to Thor, Heimdall is my favorite MCU hero.
I just finished watching "Mandela: Long walk to freedom", so this sure was a delightful surprise. Such a great movie, with such a great actor

Siempre es un gusto ve a este gran actor, disfruto ver sus producciones.
It's always amazing how Stringer can disguise his Bmore accent and fake a Bri'ish accent.
He was amazing in The Mountain Between Us (as was Kate Winslet). ❤❤❤
He was amazing as Heimdall

Bond was conceived as a WHITE man and he will remain that way. So don’t give me any of that “he’s a fictional character what does it matter anyway?” If you were to take any other ethnic character and change the race, a lot of backlash will come your way but it’s ok if it’s a white character. Double standards much?

I'm thankful he wasn't and I hope no black person ever act as the character. I just hope the franchise dwindle and dies in silence 'cause enough is enough and I hate the idea of kingdoms (specially the real ones)
Let’s be honest the most searched question is about whether he is in the James Bond.
Idris Elba the charmer that you are ❤
