HBO’s hit show Girls has picked up lots of momentum over the last couple seasons and has drawn a diverse group of fans — among them is actor Idris Elba.
Elba is admittedly a big admirer of the comedy-drama series — so much so that he tweeted the show’s creator, Lena Dunham, and pitched himself to join the cast.

@idriselba You are a pure pleasure, an honor to share the couch with you #selfiesforever
