Luther is getting a new lease on life. The British TV series will now head to Netflix with a new feature film in the works. Idris Elba is returning to star as detective John Luther for the movie and he is being joined by Cynthia Erivo and Andy Serkis. Jamie Payne is set to direct the film with Neil Cross writing the script for the project.
Luther aired for five seasons and 20 episodes on BBC. The British network is working with Netflix on the movie.
No other details about the film were released at this time, but it is being billed as a ‘continuation reimagined for film.’
What do you think? Are you excited about the return of Luther as a feature film on Netflix?

It’s been too long to be without “Luther” &/or Idris Elba on a regular basis! I’m very much looking forward to enjoying his artistry! Oh Yeah, from one Sabrina to another, Kudos for marrying your Sabrina!
I can never get enough Luther!

More Idris/Luther the mo’ better
I absolutely loved the show. Solid acting by Idris wish it was still going to be on Hulu though
Hate to have to pickup another streaming service though.
Very happy about this! There is something magnetic about Idris Elba/Luther!
