'I never think I've made it there's always more to do': Skepta discusses branching out as he makes his directorial debut and jokes he only gets starstruck 'when he looks in the mirror'


Skepta has admitted black actors should not aspire to play James Bond and revealed the only time he gets starstruck is 'when he looks in the mirror'.

The star, who co-directed the film with Dwight Okechukwu, worked on the soundtrack alongside Idris Elba, who he revealed helped add his expertise into the movie by enhancing some of the scenes - to roaring success. While working with Idris would be huge for any moviemaker, Skepta, who has been linked to Naomi Campbell and Adele, insists he does not get starstruck - admitting the only time he does feel a pang is looking at himself.
