Netflix is returning to the world of Luther.
Per Deadline, the streamer has ordered an untitled sequel to Luther: The Fallen Sun, the feature-length continuation of the hit BBC series Luther. Idris Elba is reprising his role as Detective John Luther, with Ruth Wilson and Dermot Crowley also coming back as Alice Morgan and DSU Martin Schenk, respectively.
Jamie Payne, who helmed The Fallen Sun as well as episodes of the original Luther series, will direct the sequel, which is written by original series creator Neil Cross. Filming will begin in February 2026.
The logline for the upcoming movie reads as follows: “Luther has been secretly called back into service amidst a new wave of brutal, seemingly random murders. But how can he save London when everyone on all sides seems to want him dead.”
