Breaking: Idris Elba Suffers Severe Asthma Attack In South Africa, Hospitalized (Details)

Actor Idris Elba suffered a severe asthma attack just before the South African premiere of his upcoming film “Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom.” This morning, at a Q&A following the premiere, director Justin Chadwick shared that Elba is in the hospital.

 
 
According to The Urban Daily:
 
Elba was on a flight from the U.K. to Johannesburg when he suffered an attack and had to be taken off the plane just before takeoff. Elba was also scheduled to DJ at an event in Soweto, but the event might be cancelled due to his current state of health. Elba is said to be recovering well.

Elba plays the iconic civil rights leader, Nelson Mandela in the upcoming biopic, which opens in the U.S. November 29th. Naomie Harris (“Skyfall”) co-stars as ex-wife Winnie Mandela.
