Days gone by decade had us warm up to the faces of Mercy Johnson, Joseph Benjamin, Mercy Aigbe, Funke Akindele, Iyabo Ojo, and Monalisa Chinda, amongst others, however many say they've become less desirable among viewers recently. And with famous brands older colleagues Genevieve Nnaji and Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde hardly hitting movie locations today, a breath of outdoors is a lot more than desired.
Alexx Ekubo: Although he was a cast in Lancelot Imasuen’s 2004 movie, ‘Sinners in the House’, nobody knew the 27-year-old until he emerged second in the 2010 Mr. Nigeria pageant.
He has since become a regular face in movies directed by Desmond Elliot, who he describes as his brother and mentor. Movies he has appeared in include ‘In the cupboard’, ‘True Citizen’, ‘Weekend Getaway’ and ‘Lagos Cougars.’ In 2012, the UNICAL Law graduate won his first award as BON’s Most Promising Act.
Beverly Naya: Lancelot Imasuen’s ‘Living in exile’ ushered her into the movie industry. Since then, Beverly has grown to become a household name. She has appeared in several movies, including Charles Novia’s romantic comedy, ‘Alan Poza.’ She has also joined the ‘Tinsel’ family, playing the role of Yaya. Awards she has won include Best of Nollywood’s Most Promising Talent in 2010 and Fast Rising actress at the City People Awards in 2011.
Blossom Chukwujekwu: The experience he gathered while playing the lead role in the production ‘Godless’ while in school inspired Blossom to pursue acting as a career. Before he hit the limelight in 2013 playing the lead role in the movie, ‘Flower Girl,’ Blossom had appeared in Vivian Ejike’s ‘Private storm’, ‘Valour’ by Niyi Akinmolayan among others. Recently, his performance in ‘Finding Mercy’ got him a GIAMA nomination for Best New Actor.
Chelsea Eze: Months after an audition with producer Emem Isong, she was called up by producer Vivian Ejike to star in the 2009 movie, ‘Silent Scandals’, which fetched her three nominations including AMAA’s 2010 Most Promising Actress. She has since featured in other movies like ‘Hood rush’, ‘Two brides and a baby’, ‘Closed door’, and ‘Tears of passion.’
