Idrissa Akuna "Idris" Elba (; born 6 September 1972)〔 is a British actor, musician and DJ.〔http://edition.cnn.com/2015/09/01/entertainment/idris-elba-bond-anthony-horowitz-feat/〕 Elba is best known for his portrayal of drug lord and aspiring businessman Russell "Stringer" Bell in the HBO series ''The Wire'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=HBO.com )〕 Detective John Luther in the BBC One series ''Luther'', and Nelson Mandela in the biographical film ''Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom''. Elba has been nominated for three Golden Globe Awards for Best Actor in a Miniseries or Television Film, winning one, as well as earning four Primetime Emmy Award nominations. Elba has appeared in films such as ''American Gangster'' (2007), ''Takers'' (2010), ''Thor'' (2011), ''Prometheus'' (2012), ''Pacific Rim'' (2013), ''Thor: The Dark World'' (2013), and ''Beasts of No Nation'' (2015). In addition to his acting work, he is a DJ under the moniker DJ Big Driis (or Big Driis the Londoner) and a hip-hop soul musician. ==Early life== Elba was born in Newham, London, England. His father, Winston, was a Sierra Leonean who worked in a Ford motor factory, and his mother, Eve, was a Ghanaian who had a clerical job. Elba's parents married in Sierra Leone and later moved to London. Elba was raised in East Ham, and shortened his first name from Idrissa to Idris at school in Canning Town, where he first became involved in acting. He credits The Stage with giving him his first big break: Having seen an advertisement for a play in the newspaper, Elba auditioned and met his first agent while performing in the role. He began helping an uncle with his wedding DJ business in 1986; within a year, he had started his own DJ company with some of his friends.〔 Elba left school in 1988 and won a place in the National Youth Music Theatre, thanks to a £1,500 Prince's Trust grant. He worked in various jobs, such as tyre-fitting and cold-call advertising sales, to earn an income between roles in ''Crimewatch'' murder reconstructions. He was working in nightclubs under the DJ nickname Big Driis at the age of 19, but began auditioning for television parts in his early twenties.〔 After a stint in the National Youth Music Theatre, he worked the night shift at Ford Dagenham.〔
