Nollywood actor Damilola Ogunsi has reacted after a viewer erroneously faulted the ‘Anikulapo: Rise of the Spectre’ director for casting “a white” as angel in the series.
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.
I’m sure I’m ‘blacker’ than anyone in that scene.”
