Stringer Bell goes folk for new Mumford & Sons video

Idris Elba — better known as Stringer Bell to fans of "The Wire," detective John Luther to enterprising Netflix subscribers and the next James Bond to true believers — has collaborated with mega-selling British folk band Mumford & Sons, and the result is an absolute doozy. In the video for "Lover of the Light," which Elba co-wrote, directed and stars in, the British actor is seen slowly waking in bed, preparing an egg breakfast, hurtling through the forest, and having some sort of a telepathic relationship with a stag. We believe the band when it says the conversation around the video's concept was "ale-infused." [Source]
