We got Liam Neeson punching wolves in The Grey. Then we had Blake Lively going toe-to-toe with a shark (with the help of an adorable seagull) in The Shallows. And now it’s the turn of Idris Elba to face an animal foe in a survival thriller – he’s signed up to Beast, a film that will see him face off against a hungry lion. Let’s be honest: if anyone stands a chance in that battle – taking into account both brains and brawn – it might be Elba.
