It’s no surprise that Idris Elba’s newest film Beasts Of No Nation reached a whopping 3 million views last week. Elba alwyas reigns supreme in Hollywood, and here’s why!
Elba, 41, makes sexy look effortless each and every single time we spot him walking the red carpet.
Remember that time Idris shared a video of one of his shirtless gym workouts and he almost broke Instagramt? We can’t ever forget.
And, you know it!
So this is what happens when you put on your fantasy-vision goggles?
No Good Deed star Elba can do no wrong onscreen and all of Hollywood’s leading ladies know it.
Whether he’s showing a little personality on the red carpet or playing a tough guy on set, Elba’s definitely a bit of a bad boy, which instantly makes the ladies love him just a little more.
International hunk Elba seriously looks delicious doing absolutely anything. Call us, maybe?

Rain, rain, please don’t go away, if it means that sexy hunk Elba gets to stay. (Like our little poem?) We think he would!

Pouting or not, we’re on team Idris. Tell us what makes you love the hunky thespian below.
Elba suits up for big events in chic style and he certainly has the (broad and sexy!) shoulders for it.
“Sure, I got some sexy mail when I was playing Stringer and it would be incredibly flattering if I thought it was being directed at me. But I’m not kidding myself. I’m taking it all with a pinch of salt. These people were getting turned on by Stringer Bell, not by me, and I’m sure it’s the same with John Luther. I’m just the guy who plays him,” Elba once said in an interview with British paper The Daily Mail.
Elba has emerged above the rest in the industry becoming one of Hollywood’s most reliable leading men and a regular on the Emmy nods list.
Elba isn’t just a star in front of the cameras, he does his thing behind them too. We see you boo!
Elba hasn’t let all of the fame and accolades he’s received in Hollywood go to his head. The doting dad keeps his focus on family, friends and fans.
“You put me in an white tee and drop me in Brixton, and I’m any other bloke. I’ll be treated like a ‘hoodie’ like the rest, not a star,” said Elba in a 2011 ESSENCE interview with Dream Hampton when discussing what it’s like to be a British man and the son of African immigrants.
When the cameras turn to Elba he always turns it up, and we’re just happy to watch him do his thing.
Confidence and high self-esteem are sexy, no question, and Elba has no shortage of either.

Elba and girlfriend, makeup artist Naiyana Garth, recently welcomed the birth of their son, Elba’s second child. Who doesn’t love a man who’s willing to follow his heart, settle down and start a family with the woman he loves?
Elba’s daughter Isan, 12, and new son Winston, 5 months, are his number one joys in life, and it shows.
