From singing as a feline in “Cats” to wowing as the broody detective in the BBC’s “Luther” to schooling it as a Cockney sea lion in “Finding Dory,” Elba clearly never wants to be defined. His accomplishments outside of acting also fit no mold: He’s a working DJ, founded Green Door Pictures and even turned director in 2018 with gangland thriller “Yardie.” Through Green Door, he’s released the doc “Mandela, My Dad and Me” and series including the Sky comedy “In the Long Run.” Even in a pandemic, Elba keeps busy.
