LilWin responds to criticism over choosing Nigerian actors instead of McBrown and others
Ghanaian actor, Kwadwo Nkansah widely recognized as LilWin, has explained the reason he decided to feature Nigerian actors in his movie project called ‘A Country Called Ghana.’
According to him, featuring international actors would help to revitalize the Ghana movie industry and also aid him to build his brand as a movie producer.
He fumed about why Ghanaians did not talk about other productions that featured Ghanaians but were quick to chastise him for featuring Nigerian actors.
In a video shared by Express GH TV on Youtube and sighted by GhanaWeb, LilWin said, “Are we supposed to progress or retrogress in life? If we are supposed to progress, then we must do things that will make the fans happy. I have featured a lot of Ghanaian musicians and actors in other movie projects, yet, nobody talked about it. Were those people Togolese?
“My movie projects including ‘Mr. President’, ‘Papa No’, and many others featured Ghanaians like Maame Dokono and co. We lament that the movie industry is monotonous, yet, when you want to bring something new, they complain. I can’t be at the same level so involving international actors will help me to thrive more.”
Ramsey Nouah and Awilo Sharp Sharp are part of the Nigerian actors featured in LilWin’s ‘A Country Called Ghana’.
