Idris Elba is celebrating his 52nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.
Popular actor Idris Elba (Luther, The Wire, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 52nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Elba, a cultural icon
Born Idrissa Akuna Elba in London on September 6, 1972, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in British history. Elba's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Idris hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Idris Elba as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 52.
Happy Birthday, Idris, you're the best!
