afam4eva:
Yeah, you're right. He was Colonel Dubako in 24. Even the girl he was dating when he was in America is also a Nigerian. I'll try and get her name.

afam4eva:

You're right but a lot of them have connections with with Nigeria. Chiwetel Ejiofor comes to Nigeria almost every year. Caroline Chikezie and Adewale also come into Nigeria every now and then.

Yeah, Agbaje speaks Yoruba. He's even producing a Nigerian movie that will feature Genevieve Nnaji.

Who's that merlin guy? Is there a Nigerian in merlin?

Xtana: Unfortunately, they're all only of Nigerian origin and nothing more. Just like Obama is of African origin.

He's not. Though there has been a rumour going about town that he's from Anambra coupled with the fact that he got a chieftaincy title from there.

OT Fagbenle. Very fine dude. Saw him in Double wedding with Tia and Tamara.
Re: Talking About Hollywood Moviestars Of Nigerian Origin by Kologie: 8:51am On Apr 21, 2012
I was really fascinated by Adewale Agbaje's role in the movie series, 'OZ' in which he played a prison inmate called 'Adebisi'. He is indeed a true nigerian ambassador!
Re: Talking About Hollywood Moviestars Of Nigerian Origin by PrettyCindy(f): 8:54am On Apr 21, 2012
That's nice. Good work operator. Never knew that guy in Salt is Nigerian. Its good to know we have decent actors and actresses over there.

Yeah, Adewale was [i]phenomenal [/i]in OZ.
Chiwetel is also another very talented dude.
In which century or millenium will Nollywood start producing actors like them and movies like the ones they act?
Re: Talking About Hollywood Moviestars Of Nigerian Origin by blacklion(m): 10:08pm On Apr 21, 2012
These people are not really Nigerian, more like they are of Nigerian ancestry/origin.

Nonso Alozie featured in Games of Thrones. So far in episode 6, he has been very impressive...his Nigerian accent wasn't used here.

Re: Talking About Hollywood Moviestars Of Nigerian Origin by TonySpike: 6:50pm On Jun 18, 2012
By the way, who has the best body-build between Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and Nonso Alozie? Can anybody tell me?

Adewale has one of the best body in hollywood. I've not really seen Nonso's physique.

Who's this? Which movies has he appeared in?
Re: Talking About Hollywood Moviestars Of Nigerian Origin by TonySpike: 2:49pm On Oct 04, 2012
RICHARD AYOADE

This Dude is one handsome guy and I recently just came across his profile. He featured in The Watch, submarine, Bunny and the Bull e.t.c. His has both Nigerian and Norwegian origin and is a pretty good actor.

Re: Talking About Hollywood Moviestars Of Nigerian Origin by TonySpike: 2:53pm On Oct 04, 2012
Dayo Ade

This dude is apparently another wonderful actor. You can check him out in unthinkable(with Samuel L. Jackson), Rude and Phat Girlz.

Re: Talking About Hollywood Moviestars Of Nigerian Origin by Afam4eva(m): 2:54pm On Oct 04, 2012
All this ones are petty actors. We're talking of Chiwetel Ejiofor, Adewale Alinouye Agbaje and Sophi Okonedo and not all this waka pass.

Well, these ones too might get there one day. It's only a matter of time...remember, Samuel Jackson started by acting petty roles too before he became what he is today.
