Idris Elba and Wife Sabrina Share a Kiss at Venice Film Festival

Idris Elba and his wife Sabrina are showing each other love at the Venice International Film Festival.

Elba, 52, and Sabrina, 36, stepped out on the red carpet in Venice on Tuesday, Sept. 2 for the world premiere of Elba’s new movie A House of Dynamite alongside his costar Rebecca Ferguson and director Kathryn Bigelow.

Elba and his wife paused to share a kiss at the event, with the action star wearing a suave dark gray suit and matching black shoes. Sabrina, the Somali-Canadian model who has been married to Idris for more than six years, wore a simple white dress and matching heels for the occasion. The couple held hands and laughed together as they posed for photos and walked the carpet.

Idris and Sabrina first met in 2017 in Vancouver while the actor was in town filming the movie The Mountain Between Us. As he told The View in 2019, the pair found “love at first sight” when he decided to go to a party on his “only day off.”

The couple made their red carpet debut together at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2017 for the premiere of Idris’ movie Molly’s Game. Idris and Sabrina announced their engagement in 2018 and married in April 2019, months after Idris was named PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive. 

Back in June 2024, Sabrina told PEOPLE in an interview that the couple like to shower together. “I love showering together, although we have some really funny memories showering together,” she said at the time.

“When we can get up at the same time and someone doesn’t have to be up super early, it’s really nice, because we can get into the shower and enjoy that moment, have a coffee together, which doesn’t feel like it happens enough, unfortunately,” she added. “I think selfless self-care when it’s with community and your partner and with anyone feels really nice.”

An official synopsis for Elba’s new movie A House of Dynamite reads: “When a single, unattributed missile is launched at the United States, a race begins to determine who is responsible and how to respond.”

The movie is Bigelow’s first feature film since 2017’s Detroit; Bigelow, 73, previously won two Oscars in 2010 for directing and producing the war movie The Hurt Locker and received another nomination in 2013 for Zero Dark Thirty. Prior to A House of Dynamite‘s premiere, Elba last appeared in this year’s action-comedy Heads of State opposite John Cena. He also voiced a dog in the Netflix movie Fixed.

Elba costars in A House of Dynamite, which is in select theaters Oct. 10 and begins streaming on Netflix Oct. 24, alongside a large cast that also includes Gabriel Basso, Jared Harris, Tracy Letts, Anthony Ramos, Jonah Hauer-King, Moses Ingram, Greta Lee, Jason Clarke, Malachi Beasley, Brian Tee, Gbenga Akinnagbe, Willa Fitzgerald, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Kyle Allen and Kaitlyn Dever.
