Nice!! This is one of the many films he featured in in the western film world. Incidentally, there are many Nigerians especially from those first elite Lagos-Saro Egba families that were already acting internationally way back like him, Pa Campbell etc.

There's one old epic film produced in the west with scenes from a Pyrate ship on sea he once acted in. In that film, I think he was even the only black in the film and he looks way younger in that film than in this one OP posted.
I recall seeing that film several years ago but can't recall the title. I was pleasantly surprised to see him in that old epic film so my joy knew no bounds seeing his name on the cast at the end of the film. I felt so proud of him and our heritage that as far way back as then, he has been acting in such high budget sophisticated film.
He is truly a Legend in the true meaning of it not legend who limited their craft only to Nigeria and didn't take their craft to compete at the international level.
God bless Pa Olu Jacobs. You are truly a Great man!

Domewellna:

Should be part one or 2, where sparrow held meeting with all pirates leaders..
And be observant I'm the cast, the names of people who acted in the beginning and ending..
It's clearly written Olu Jacobs..
What ?? ... I never knew that.
The scene where Jack sparrow had a meeting with all the pirate Lord's is in part 3, where there were decideding how to bring back Calypso and also destroy Beckett's fleet.

I'll go and confirm it on YouTube.
