Veteran actor Chiwetalu Agu is popular for playing comic roles and
wicked man in movies. The talented actor, in an interview with Newsmen,
said he has been embarrassed by people because of the evil roles he
plays in movies.
Below is what he told NEWSMEN:
“I wouldn’t call it affinity. Years ago, I found out that most of the scripts that were brought to me didn’t have comic relief; I was always given roles of a wicked man and I got to understand that most of my fans were not pleased with it. Some
of them felt it was something real, and the consequence was that whenever I stepped out in public, I was caught in embarrassing situations.
“I then decided to be infusing comic relief even when I’m playing wicked characters because I’m a veteran screen writer. In the early 80s, we were operating in NTA Enugu, which was formerly Anambra Television Channel 50, so the talent is there, and I combined it with the wicked roles they were giving me. The result is that when you are watching me play a wicked role, you will still have cause to laugh, and ease your tension. In fact, I have achieved a lot by doing that,” he said.
