Idris Elba on Moving From The Wire to The Office

Idris Elba, the British actor who memorably portrayed The Wire's Stringer Bell, has had a hit-or-miss post-HBO career; he's been in stuff you’ve probably seen (American Gangster, 28 Weeks Later), as well as stuff you probably wish you hadn't (Prom Night, The Unborn). Tonight, Elba breaks his post-Wire television sabbatical when he appears on The Office, in the first part of a six-episode arc.
