I am getting disappointing roles post 'Mandela': Idris Elba

Actor Idris Elba has revealed that after starring in 'Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom' he has been getting disappointing film offers.
The British star portrayed the late president of South African, Nelson Mandela, in the biopic, reported Contactmusic.
"You know, I'd just played this iconic human being, and the scripts I got afterward were sort of... Disappointing. Look, I know that I work a lot, but I'd prefer to wait sometimes because I don't want to just do rubbish films anymore or characters that anyone can play," he said.
Elba, who is known for his acting skills, is passionate about music too.

"Me and Wood Harris, who played Avon, and Hassan Johnson, who played Wee Bey, we'd book out a studio and make records of us rapping. I'd make the beats and chords - just fun, freestyle stuff," he said.
