As the sun sets on London, a new darkness rises. The city is plagued by a vicious serial killer, leaving fear and terror in their wake.
But as the city trembles, one man stands tall against the shadows. Disgraced detective John Luther, played by the incomparable Idris Elba, is back in the highly-anticipated film sequel to the award-winning television saga, “Luther: The Fallen Sun.”
As Luther sits behind bars, unable to accept his failure to capture the cyber psychopath who continues to taunt him, he makes the bold decision to break out of prison and finish the job, no matter the cost.
Joining Elba on this pulse-pounding journey are the talented Cynthia Erivo, Andy Serkis, and the returning Dermot Crowley as Martin Schenk.
At the helm of this thrilling tale is Jamie Payne, who also worked on the final season of Luther. Netflix and the BBC have joined forces to bring this cinematic experience to life.
Filming began in November 2021, with Elba not only starring in the film, but also serving as a producer alongside series creator Neil Cross.
Peter Chernin, Jenno Topping, and David Ready also join as producers, while Dan Finlay, Kris Thykier and Priscilla Parish serve as executive producers.
Get ready for a heart-stopping ride as John Luther takes on the city’s deadliest enemy in “Luther: The Fallen Sun.”
