Idris Elba Stars In Ubisoft's First-Ever, Big Budget Live-Action Commercial

He's appeared in a Marvel franchise, won a Golden Globe for his role on "Luther" and has changed the game with Netflix's "Beasts of No Nation," but Idris Elba still wanted to add something a little more out of the ordinary to his resume. 

The 43-year-old actor stars in Ubisoft's first ever big-budget, live-action commercial for the video game Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege , out Dec. 1. Although he doesn't appear in the actual game, Elba sets the tone in the TV spot, debuting Nov. 18.

The Huffington Post sat down with Elba to discuss his role in the project, as well as his gamer mentality.
