Idris Elba

The chocolately goodness that is Idris Elba just released a filler track to test the waters. He’s been on the music scene for a while as a DJ and a lowkey rapper…but now he sings too (and were not talking about autotune) Continue »

Dig Beyonce and Idris Elba in their upcoming film Obsessed – set to be released on February 27, 2009. We can’t help but to wonder if Sasha will have better luck with this jawn than with Cadillac Records, which opened miserably over the weekend.

Killer Breeze

Posted by Bossip Staff

Chris Brown discusses an upcoming project:

“It’s a movie called ‘The Heist’ that I’m doing with T.I., Idris Elba and Matt Dillon. I’m playing a killer. I’m not going to give anything else away! It’s a bank-robbing movie, so it’s one of those action-packed films. You get a little different side of me in that movie.”

“At the end of the day, I’m going to focus on my music first. [But] me being onstage enhances me being in the movie, and then me being in the movie — acting, catching characters — gives me time to transform into a different character onstage.”

Just what the world needs, another singer slash actor slash…the movie sounds hot though, especially the Idris Elba part.

Here is are some promo shots of the new film “The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency” starring a naked-faced Idris Elba and Jill Scott. Jill is already good press from the film:

Oscar-winning director Anthony Minghella, who tragically died yesterday of a hemorrhage following neck surgery. “She is extremely stellar. I think she can be a real star,” raved Minghella, who recently directed Scott as Botswana gumshoe Precious Ramotswe in the upcoming flick.

More Acting Gigs For Bey

Beyonce will star in an upcoming film called “Obsessed” playing the wife of Idris Elba.  She and her father Matthew Knowles are the executive producers. Damn, we were interested in seeing some love scenes with her and Idris, but with daddy on the staff, they probably won’t be too steamy. That and we know Hovvy Hov ain’t having that ish.

Speaking of which, here he is at the Cavaliers/Knicks game last night sans Bey:

For the Ladies: Idris Elba as ‘Fly Ty’

Posted by Bossip Staff

Idris Elba “Fly Ty”

Idris Elba and Cuba Gooding Jr. are cast to star in the biopic film The Vapors based on 80′s hip-hop pioneers the Juice Crew that included Big Daddy Kane, Biz Markie, and Roxanne Shante. Idris will be playing rapper Fly Ty and Cuba will star as the Juice Crew founder Marley Marl.

We know you ladies can’t wait to see Idris on the screen again, but we are a little skeptical about Cuba’s corny ass playing Marley Marl. If you need a brief reminder of Cuba and his gaylordisms see below.
