What An Honor It Was To Step Into The Shoes Of Nelson Mandela And Portray A Man Who Defied Odds, Broke Down Barriers, And Championed Human Rights Before The Eyes Of The World.

I Don't Get Recognised That Much Yet In London, But When I Do I Get A Real Sense Of Achievement.

I'm Rebelling Against Being Handed A Career, Like, 'you're The Next This; You're The Next That.' I'm Not The Next Anything, I'm The First Me. I Can't Be Myself, I Can't Just Be Idris Elba. But That's Just The Nature Of The Business.

The Adrenaline Feeling Of Jumping Out Of Cliffs And Bikes And All Of That Is Very Specific To The Film. In 'pac Rim' I'm Not Doing That So Much. There Isn't That Touch Stonework For Me In It, But There Is A Lot Of Action.

I Try To Fit In Workouts Whenever I Can.
