Actor Damilola Ogunsi Reacts as ‘Anikulapo’ Viewer Mistakes Him for White Man

 

Nollywood actor Damilola Ogunsi has expressed shock that people didn't recognize him in the film, ‘Anikulapo: Rise of the Spectre’.

 

He spoke after Nigerians had attacked the director of the film for casting “a white” as angel in the series, when he's actually the one that played the role.

 

The viewer with the X handle Ohjay1 while sharing a clip from a scene from the series where the protagonist, Saro (played by Kunle Remi) met an angel (played by Damilola Ogunsi) at the gates of heaven, wrote: “This thing has to stop, why use white as angel inside black movie #Anikulapo.”

Reacting, the albino actor said it feels good for him not to be recognised.

 

He, however, said he is “blacker” than anyone in the scene.

 

Reposting the viewer’s tweet, Ogunsi wrote: “Feels good not to be recognized.
