The seven-episode series unfolds in roughly the same amount of time it takes to fly from Dubai to London in real life.

Standing 6-foot-2-inches , Idris Elba's size helps to sell his characters. As a detective in Luther, he often averted protocol and went rogue. On The Wire, he played a shrewd, intimidating crime boss in the drug world. In the 2022 movie Beast, he protected his daughters from a ferocious lion while on holiday in South Africa.

“I'm used to being cast as a big man," said Elba. “In this situation Sam is vulnerable. He isn't there to fight.” “We thought about builds and then we thought, ‘What if we just bring a plane in and shoot within what we’ve got?'" said Elba, who was also an executive producer on the show. “It’s difficult to to make that happen because you shoot things out of sequence, but each minute of every episode is important," said Elba.

Idris Elba and Archie Panjabi pose for portrait photographs to promote the television series Hijack on Jun 26, 2023 in London.
