Idris Tells Beyonce and her Team to Sit Down Somewhere!


With Obsessed hitting theatres on Friday Idris has been doing all types of promo's to help get people out to support the film. In a recent interview Idris discussed what it was like to work with Beyonce... and it wasn't pretty! Read this:

Connecting With Beyonce…
“I think this was a very important role for her, because it was the first time she wasn’t playing a singer. But when we first started taping, it was difficult for us to really connect as artists because she has such a huge machine behind her. So in the early going it felt divided … almost like it was her and her team on one side, and everyone else on the other. But once the cameras started rolling, she really opened up and those walls began to fall. As a result, I really saw her grow as an artist, and I think you’ll be able to see it as well when you watch the film.”

Elba’s take on the film receiving a PG-13 rating …“The process of making a movie with BeyoncĂ© was unique, just because she’s such a huge superstar. So when I first looked at the script, I thought the film could have and probably should have received an “R” rating on subject matter alone. But BeyoncĂ© has such a responsibility to her younger fans that I believe it was necessary for them not to try certain things because of that responsibility.”
