The Hollywood Reporter announces that a feature-length film inspired by the BBC series Luther is in development, with Idris Elba set to return as the lead.
The cast will also include two familiar faces from the show — Ruth Wilson and Dermot Crowley. Jamie Payne is attached to direct; he previously helmed the 2023 feature Luther: Fallen Sun.
The new instalment centres on a string of baffling murders in London, which Detective Chief Inspector John Luther (Elba) takes on. Netflix will distribute the picture. The original Luther series ran from 2010 to 2019.
