Watch Idris Elba Escape from Prison in the New Trailer for Netflix's "Luther: The Fallen Sun"

Elba will be joined by two-time Oscar nominee Cynthia Erivo, who is also starring in the upcoming "Wicked" film, and Bafta winner Andy Serkis, known for the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

The trailer shows Erivo seemingly playing a rival detective while Serkis plays the villain. Dermot Crowley also reprises the role of Martin Schenk. While it doesn't look as though Wilson returns, we can't help but yearn for all of the drama she would bring.

Netflix (which is making the film alongside the BBC) has revealed the logline, explaining that it will be "an epic continuation of the Luther saga". It continues by explaining the film will kick off where the TV series was left. It reads, "a gruesome serial killer is terrorizing London while brilliant but disgraced detective John Luther sits behind bars. Haunted by his failure to capture the cyber psychopath who now taunts him, Luther decides to break out of prison to finish the job by any means necessary."

Emmy nominee Jamie Payne ("The Alienist") directs the feature from a script by series creator and writer, Neil Cross. One thing we do know for sure is that the scenes are set to be bigger and better than ever before. "Having delivered every episode of Luther on budgets which are comically small, [we've been able] to have a wider canvas and a bigger budget to tell the kind of stories that we've always wanted to be able to tell," Cross told the Radio Times in September 2021. "And we've really been given the opportunity – while staying entirely true."

"Luther: The Fallen Sun" is being shown in selected cinemas from 24 Feb., and will premiere on Netflix on 10 March.
