What if Idris Elba voiced Kurama from Naruto?

Now, for those who know about me should know that Kurama is by far my favorite character in the Naruto Franchise. I always disliked how little attention was given to his story and personal plot.

However, I have always wondered what Hollywood actor would play as the perfect Kurama.

And no one seems to fit the role better than Idris Elba.

Both have that persona that demands the attention of the audience and even when they've been bested or outwitted, they still give off the air of superiority. I can't see anyone else (except maybe Lliam Neeson) who can pull Kurama off.

What do you think?

Maybe, I'm a bit cautious of the live action movie in general, DB: Evolution still leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

@fullmetalemprah: i don't think a live action of the Main Naruto Story would work in any situation.

In my opinion, the best way is to make a side story for one of the major factors to the official story of Naruto.

Which is why i want a movie about the Bijuu. If not at least a side story or spin off or something

Of all the characters in Naruto I definitely wouldn't claim Kurama as underused and neglected
