10 May –It was reported that Idris Elba is set to work with filmmaker Sam Hargrave in an upcoming movie called, "Stay Frosty". According to sources, the new project will be produced by Elba himself alongside the "Extraction" director, and will star the actor as a man who is on the hunt of an assassin who shot him in the head while also trying to make it home in time for Christmas. The character has been described as a John Wick-type and that the movie itself is intended to be a tribute to classic action films like "Lethal Weapon" and "Die Hard".
Elba has been one busy-bee for the past few years, with his latest films include James Gunn's "The Suicide Squad" and George Miller's epic fantasy romance, "Three Thousand Years of Longing". On the other hand, Sam Hargrave is now working on the new script for "Extraction 2", following the success of the 2020 Netflix action flick starring Chris Hemsworth.
