Recent photos of the popular British actor, known for Luther and The Wire, seemingly pulling a Jon Hamm on the set of his new movie, A Hundred Streets, sparked an online firestorm and sent scores of fans' hearts a-flutter as they asked themselves, "What is that in his pants?"
"The good news is i got a s--tload of followers," the 41-year-old actor tweeted on Saturday. "The bad news is, that is a mic wire. #egowentintospaceshipmodethough"
