Hollywood Actor Reveals Why He Will Soon Abandon Hollywood For Nollywood by yusbaklee(m): 11:42am On Sep 16, 2016
David Oyetokunbo Oyelowo is a British Nigerian actor and producer. His most famous films include: The Last King of Scotland, The Butler and Selma.

He is a two-time Golden Globe-nominated British star, who spent part of his childhood in Nigeria. He is recently among the flock of movie stars attending the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in Canada.

He was asked in an interview about how he feels about the Nollywood industry. He said: Nollywood, it oscillates between being the second- and third-biggest film industry in the world.

I can tell by the profile that they are gaining that its not going to be long before I to be perfectly frank, as someone who has established their career in Western film making am going to be desirous to go back and make a film that would be deemed a Nollywood movie.
