Luther Season 5 might not be in active discussion, but Idris Elba believes the show can go on “forever”.
Speaking to Yahoo TV, the actor/producer insists there’s no expiration date on the BBC crime drama, and is willing to play the role indefinitely:
“Like in this world that we live in right now, we’re all sort of looking for someone to speak up and go, like, ‘What the f—?’ And Luther is that guy. Albeit drama, TV, whatever, but that guy stands up and goes, ‘What the f–?’ And I like that about Luther, and I represent that. It’s a very weird time. We’re all sitting here going, ‘Wow. Somebody’s gonna get shot any moment.’ But to have someone that just goes, ‘Don’t worry about it, guys. I’m gonna put on my gray coat and my red tie and I’ll take take care of this.’ F–k it, let’s have that. So if I can play that part forever, [I’ll] do it.”
Stay tuned as we continue to monitor the status of Luther Season 5…
