Manly Man: Idris Elba Covers the November/December 2021 Esquire

Our favorite Manly Man, Idris Elba, is the ever-so-handsome face for the November-December 2021 Esquire. Most of us of who have followed Elba over the years believe he is the perfect candidate for the next 007, even though the word is that his isn’t being considered. Shame….

Per Esquire, “The coolest man on the planet won’t be shaken from his master plan. But after a bruising 18 months, the multitalented Englishman, who acts, deejays, and podcasts, and this month stars in the all-Black Western, The Harder They Fall, wants to clear up a few things.” Interview by Tim Lewis.

“You’re looking at a man that doesn’t really have time to waste on pretending to be anything but what I am.”  Idris Elba
