Idris Elba is taking a year off from acting to focus on BEING SMOKIN’ HOT AM I RIGHT, LADIES? AND ALSO FELLAS?! LOL! Seriously though, Idris Elba could take a year off from acting to focus on the PHONE BOOK and I don’t think anyone would mind. From the StandardUK:
Idris Elba is taking a year away from acting to focus on his lesser-known career as a musician.
“This year, I’m not going to work as an actor and I’m going to put my mind into music,” he said. “It’s a progression thing with me. I want to make music but I don’t want to shove it down people’s throats. People are just barely getting to know me as an actor. But I do it from the heart, I’m not doing it for money — I just enjoy doing it.
“I’ve been asked to do lots of collaborations. I did something with Milk, which is a great band and an odd collaboration, I’ve done stuff with Jay-Z on his album American Gangster, so there’s bits and pieces that I’m just going to keep moving forward with.”
OK, Idris Elba! Whatever you say! I am sure that it is a progression with you, whatever that means, and that this is part of that progression. You take as much time as you need, my man. Your face will still be there when you get back, right? You’re not taking a year off to recover from Face/Off surgery? That would be the one thing that Idris Elba could take a year off to focus on where I would be like, well hold on and let’s just think this through a little more. AM I RIGHT ABOUT THINKIN’ IT THROUGH, LADIES?!

I feel like the hashtag diminishes the effectiveness of this gif. I also hate that, as a society, we now call this a hashtag instead of a pound sign.
I’d show Idris Elba my pound sign. (GROSSSSSSS.)
Don’t bother. I showed him mine, and it only made him sad.

Sorry facetaco, nothing diminishes John Watson/Martin Freeman for me. Not even a game of tic-tac-toe.
What if he took a year off to focus on eating children?
I wish he was taking a year off to focus on my pants.
He really is a phenomenal tailor.
The image of Idris Elba tailoring a pair of pants is too attractive!!!!
“Yes that is how they measure an inseam… in prison!” Am I right FriendsHeads?
You are right

I wish he was taking a year off from wearing shirts.
What if he only wears short-sleeved shirts? That way, they don’t cover the Elbas.
If, after skimming the internet, looking for inspiration, Annie’s started making pun-titled flavors, and one was called Idris Elba’s (and they were incredibly delicious elbow macaronies.) then AND ONLY then the world regain my trust.
Yeah he should take a year off to take his shirt off
It would be like downloading porn in the 14.4kbps era.
This is fine, unless this means Idris Elba will not be playing the next Bond. If that’s the case, Idris Elba and I have a problem (just kidding, don’t hurt me Idris Elba!)
I will accept him not as bond if and only if he is the Bond Boy to Helen Mirren’s 007.
Shut up, a girl can dream.
Mirren? Not Swinton?
Swinton would be an excellent M, Q, and villain (Just imagine Goldswinton!), but I have to give 007 to Mirren.
I may or may not have spent far too much time thinking about this.
That’s weird, because the only acceptable 007 at this point would be Bobcat Goldthwait.
Only if Q is then played by a talking horse.
When you read this title from an internet-enabled phone, you only get this title: Idris Elba To Take A Year Off From Acting To Focus On Who
I was expecting very different content than what I initially read. It’s okay. All Elba content is good Elba content. Also Elba as the next Doctor would be amazing. Or Helen Mirren. I think LBT can agree with me on this as Mirren as the Doctor would make “Helen Mirren on a Spaceship” a reality… but Elba as the Doctor would get one hell of a River Song “Hello Sweetie!” (with the added bonus of knowing Rose is kicking herself and throwing a tantrum in the background).
Are we all just making innuendo about Idris Elba? In that case mine is “I wish he would keep moving forward with my bits and pieces.”
I wish he would co-produce the intro to my American Gangster
I’d let him Buffalo my Soldier.
I wish he would shove it down my throat
He can take a business class in MY episode of The Wire…
He collaborated with milk? That is just a great way to say he drank a bunch of milk. I’m gonna collaborate with rum tonight.
Able was I, ere I saw Elba. And by “able” I mean “aroused.”
Eva, can I stack Rod’s sad-ass, dork cats in a cave?
I really want this muthafucka to be the NEXT James Bone and also Blade for the Blade reboot.
Bwhahah! Whooops. I meant Bond**
James Bone would be awesome too.
But if he’s too busy with playing James Bone, does that mean Blade would have to be played by Wesley Pipes?
no you didn’t. no. you. didn’t.
Has anyone here actually heard Idris Elba’s music? It’s… not quite as handsome as he is.
We don’t speak of it.
