'As far as I’m concerned there isn’t a world where Ruth Wilson ever went away,' he said. 'Just because she’s not in this particular film doesn’t mean that she’s not there in the broader universe. 'Alice is a very real person to me and I wouldn’t want to live in a world without her.'He added: “I would love to turn the tables at some point on a conversation like this because Alice sprung from some moist part of the back of my brain fully formed, in a slightly folkloric way.It comes after Idris was seen fleeing an explosion outside St Paul's Cathedral on the set of the upcoming Luther Netflix film.
