Sorry ladies, Idris - who has been married and divorced twice before – has ruled out ever tying the knot again.

“Am I ever gonna get remarried? I don't think so. Marriage is an institution of sorts. And I've done it. It's not for everybody. It's not my life's calling.”

While Idris isn’t counting on marrying again, his busy schedule of filming and spending time with his two children keeps him way too busy anyway.

The 44-year-old has six projects releasing this year alone, including Thor: Ragnarok, The Dark Tower and the latest season of Luther.

Idris also touched on is directorial debut in Yardie. He explains: “It's set in the late seventies, early eighties, a hotbed of Jamaican culture in London, but then crack cocaine arrives.”

Essence joined Idris while he was in Thailand training for a Muay Thai match as part of a documentary.
