Carl Weathers wants to work with Idris Elba on 'Luther'

London: Actor Carl Weathers says he wants to work with Idris Elba on BBC police drama "Luther". The 69-year-old star, who played the loud-mouthed pugilist Apollo Creed opposite Sylvester Stallone in four 'Rocky' films, is a huge fan of Elba's show and thinks he is incredible as the tough detective, reported Femalefirst.

"I'm such a fan of 'Luther', it really is brilliant and I've got to give props to Idris because what he does with that character is really riveting," Weathers told BANG Showbiz.

"I would love to play a character in that whose very, very American but who comes to the UK, for whatever reason, and is involved in something he needs to look into. It certainly wouldn't be bad to have to live in London for a while."
