Idris, 50, appeared on Today on Wednesday to promote his new movie, Luther: The Fallen Sun.
Savannah interviewed the star, kicking things off by asking: “So what’s going on with life? How are the kids? How is everybody?”
Idris replied: “It’s been a busy time, I was just here [in New York].”
Savannah, 51, exclaimed: “I know!”
Idris asked her playfully: “Aren’t you sick of me yet?”
The host joked back, laughing: “We have to stop meeting like this! People will talk!”
The Luther star burst out laughing and replied: “I know.”
This isn’t the first time Savannah has shown off her playful side on the Today show.
Back in January, she lusted over how “handsome” the actor Kevin Costner is.
Savannah made her feelings clear about Kevin when Carson Daly presented a segment on the actor celebrating his 68th birthday.
Kevin wrote on Instagram to mark his big day: “Don’t believe what they say about getting older.
“Each passing year is a gift, and it gets better and better with time.”
Carson, Savannah, and their co-hosts Craig Melvin, Hoda Kotb, and Al Roker all agreed with Kevin’s sentiments.
Savannah then added: “And he’s so handsome, too. You’re all thinking it.”
Carson was quick to agree, “Yes he is,” and Craig chipped in: “Of course he is. He is dreamy.”
Al rounded things off with an, “Mhmmm,” in agreement.
Earlier that month, she admitted to having a “crush” on Yellowstone actor Luke Grimes while interviewing him.
When Craig Melvin surprised Savannah by bringing out Luke, prompting her to hide her face and shriek: “Oh my God!”
She then admitted: “Got a huge crush on you!”
“Okay bye,” she added as she ran away from him, hiding behind Dylan Dreyer.
Not letting Savannah off the hook for her flirty behavior, Dylan said: “I’ve never seen you blush like that.”
Savannah admitted: “I know because I do have a big crush on Kayce from Yellowstone, or whatever your real name is. Hi, Luke Grimes!”
She then added: “I came over here to keep the creep entity away from him.”
