Need another reason to love Idris Elba? Well, his latest comments on the #MeToo movement ought to do it. While some male celebrities have seriously put their foot in it when discussing the powerful campaign against sexual harassment and assault (*cough* Matt Damon) the Luther star nailed his take on the matter.

In an interview with the UK’s Sunday Times, the 46-year-old was asked if it was hard being a man in Hollywood since the movement started.

"It's only difficult if you're a man with something to hide," Elba said.

Cue: collective swooning across social media.
