Idris Elba and Ruth Wilson Returning for New "Luther" Movie at Netflix (Exclusive)

Idris Elba is returning for a new "Luther" feature from Netflix that continues the gritty adventures of the detective hero created by Neil Cross and first aired as a BBC series.

Ruth Wilson, who co-starred in the series but did not appear in the previous standalone movie, 2023’s Luther: The Fallen Sun, is coming back for this new outing (rectifying an injustice amongst Lutherites).

Dermot Crowley, another "Luther" fixture, will also be in the new thriller that is being directed by Jamie Payne, a member of the "Luther" family who helmed episodes of the series as well as Fallen Sun.

Written by Cross, the new story sees a new wave of brutal, seemingly random murders hit London, with Luther secretly called back into service. But the dramatic question is, how can Luther save London when everyone on all sides seems to want him dead?

“Neil has yet again, created a wonderfully dark tale to bring us all back together,” said Payne in a statement. “It’s a true joy to be back on the streets of Lutherland with the supreme talents that are Idris Elba and Dermot Crowley. I am also thrilled to be reunited with the brilliant and dangerous Alice Morgan played by the extraordinarily talented Ruth Wilson.”
