LONDON (Reuters) - British actor Idris Elba goes behind the camera for his directorial debut ?Yardie?, a crime drama he says will offer young people a ?perspective? on violence at a time when London is suffering from a surge in knife crime. Director Idris Elba attends the film premiere of 'Yardie' at the BFI Southbank, London, Britain August 21 2018. The film, released in UK cinemas this Friday, comes after London?s murder rate overtook that of New York for the first time earlier this year. ?Of course, I would be a robot if there was no fear,? he said of his first-time directing.
