Actors Idris Elba and Naomie Harris posed on the red carpet prior to the Royal film performance screening of “Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom” at The Odeon Leicester Square in London on Thursday, sovaldi Dec. 5.

The event organizers waited until the film ended to inform the guests that Nelson Mandela had passed away at his home in South Africa.

Some people in the audience — which included Mandela’s family members and Prince William and Kate — gasped, screamed and wailed after the announcement.
