British actor, producer, and musician, Idrissa Akuna Elba, has turned 50.
The actor turned 50 on Tuesday, September 6, 2022.
In an interview with the Mirror newspaper, Elba spoke about turning 50 and having a quiet celebration with his family.
“I am opting for a chilled dinner with family and friends. Is that boring?
“I feel good. I am excited to turn 50. But I cannot even say the word 50. It is like ‘What? I am old!’. That is me – on my way. I feel 50. I wake up in the morning and I am aching and sick.
“The last few years I have realised how precious life is – so, I just want to live. I am really just thankful to make it.
“I am going to relax. I have had big parties and this time, I want to soak it up in a chilled environment.
“My wife threw a massive birthday party for me (last year), so this year, I will chill. I do a lot of partying, so maybe I will chill”, he stated.
The actor launched to the limelight starring as Russell “Stringer” Bell in HBO’s critically acclaimed series, “The Wire” in the early 2000’s. He has also dominated the music industry, performing as a DJ and musician.
