CD PROJEKT RED has released a new Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty live-action trailer featuring Idris Elba, who portrays a major character in the upcoming expansion — secret agent Solomon Reed.

The Live-Action Trailer also features a song performed by Idris Elba himself, which can also be found on Darkstar Radio — a new radio station added to Cyberpunk 2077 as part of the game’s free Update 2.0.
