For the past few years, Idris Elba has been making moves to break into the limelight. He has starred in HBO's "The Wire" and has shared screen time with Denzel Washington and Beyonce. With all of this behind him, Elba is credited as a great supporting actor.

Being a supporting actor is great, but Idris Elba sees something better for himself. Elba has put in work behind the scenes in 2010 to become one of the leading male actors of 2011. Currently, he is working on Thor, in which he will portray God.

Idris Elba's role in Thor has received negative press from white supremacists. Despite the negative energy, Idris Elba is loving the attention. He feels that every great actor needs a pack of haters diminishing their every move.

The film will premiere in 2011 and it will definitely attract a major audience, which is a win-win for him regardless. With the film almost promising a major audience, more people will see Idris Elba's talents and he will land more movie roles. Idris Elba feels 2011 will be the first year of great things for him. Back in 2007, he starred alongside Denzel Washington in American Gangster afterwhich he was compared to the legend.

Elba loves comparisons, but he wants to be known as a great actor in his own right. Even with Thor in post-production, he will star in more films which are scheduled for 2011 and 2012.
