Luther Film And Season 3

Luther’s star and creator, Idris Elba and Neil Cross respectively have been discussing of making a feature film out of their BBC drama series.

During the BAFTA’s, Idris Elba talked about the possibility of a Luther film:

“If we do decide to make this film, the spine of the film will probably come from The Calling - which is the book – and that starts at the beginning of who Luther is and where he’s come from.”  

He went on to say the he wants to bring new fans in and maintain those that already are, but he points out that a Luther films is still an uncertainty:

“[The movie is] a goal, it’s a goal for Neil and I, for sure – we’ve talked about it at length,” he said. “We haven’t got into any sort of deal stage or anything like that, but it’s certainly a goal. We did six episodes [on television], then we did four, then we waited a year and a half and then we did another four. That’s training our fans to gear up towards what could be either a film or maybe a television special and then a film.”

Regarding season 3 of the series, it’s is going to be a four episode season and it will begin airing on BBC One this July 2^nd.
