40 year old Hollywood actor, Boris Frederic Cecil Tay-Natey Ofuatey-Kodjoe, better known as Boris Kodjoe, is an Austrian-born actor and former fashion model who became famous for his roles in the movie The Bachelor and TV drama, Soul Food. He arrived in Nigeria for his role as a celebrity guest judge at the 2013 edition of Miss Earth Nigeria. He spoke exclusively to Movie Moments Gbenda Bada.
Have you heard about the Nigerian movie industry?
Actually, I have…Yes, I have heard about the movie industry in Nigeria and I’ve been trying to know more about Nollywood and now that I’m in the industry educate myself about the industry.
Would you be willing to work on a Nollywood flick?
Absolutely, why not, it depends on the script, I’m open to work and can work with anybody. You can learn from anybody and everybody, so, I would love to work with the Nigerian actors and directors but it depends on the script.
Why did you accept to be a guest judge?
I love Africa, my father is from Accra, Ghana and I’ve always been interested and always wanted to help and render service in anyway that I can and also to do my best to Africans in Africa in any form and capacity and with Miss Earth Nigeria has provided me that opportunity.
My next movie is called Baggage Claim, it’s a romantic comedy with Paula Patton, I have another movie coming out in February 2014 called Evicted with Sharon Leo.
It would be great to see Boris on the Nollywood screens.
