The man Idris Elba is doing the damn thing!
The 40-year-old British actor is the star of not one, but two upcoming movies about to hit theaters this year.
First is the new flick from director Guillermo del Toro called Pacific Rim opening July 12th. It’s a sci-fi action adventure film about legions of monstrous creatures called the Kaiju. These things start to rise from the sea and go HAM, taking millions of lives and consuming humanity’s resources for years on end.
Luckily for humanity, they have massive robots called the Jaegers who try to save day.
Check out the trailer below.
Our boy is also playing Nelson Mandela in the new film Long Walk To Freedom. A big role, but a fitting one nonetheless. The film is at Cannes now and will hit U.S. theaters on November 29th.
