Idris Elba is working on a cooking show
January 3, 2023 by DarcieIt’s not every day that a bona fide movie star decides to do a cooking show, but Idris Elba is not your everyday actor. Apparently he is working on a program that will explore his roots as well as African cuisine. What’s more, the show has sparked a bidding war between streaming services who are all vying to produce it.

Elba has been vocal in interviews and on social media about his love for food and cooking, and rumor has it that he has enlisted his personal chef, King Enekeme, to assist him with the program. The exact format of the show has not been finalized, but will apparently delve into Elba’s past “and explore his family’s heritage and culture.” Given the dearth of quality cooking shows as we discussed several days ago, this concept has merit.
