Pic: Idris Elba gives the coolest reply possible about the talk that he is going to be the new James Bond

We really shouldn't have expected anything else from Luther himself...

We really shouldn’t have expected anything else from Luther himself…

We’re massive fans of Idris Elba here in JOE Towers and our love for the man who played the iconic Stringer Bell in The Wire has led us to christen Elba as the ‘unofficial coolest man on the planet’… after us of course. *Cough, cough*.

The recent Sony hackings have suggested that the Bond producers are considering the Luther actor to replace Daniel Craig whenever he decides against renewing his Licence To Kill.

Luther will be returning for a new two-part special of course while James Bond will return, much like they always promise in the closing titles, for Spectre.

Elba can already boast about being a gifted actor and an impressive DJ but it seems like he still has a fair degree of humility.

Take a look.
