I remember my manager telling me, 'Be myself, be humble, keep rooted, keep God first'. Those words were very helpful.

Id like to be in anything that tells a good story and has an interesting character.

I love London. I'm a London fanatic. That's my city. I love being from there, you don't appreciate it until you go out.

My dad is a minister, and my mum is a worker with the less fortunate and the disabled. They're Nigerian natives. Their first language is Yoruba, and their second language is English.

We've grown up with American movies. Not to say that American movies - or movies that have been based in Watts, Compton, or Inglewood - are a 100% true depiction of that world. But also you have inner-city London, and the foundations are pretty much the same. Especially me, growing up in Southeast London, in Peckham.

Some people feel fulfillment from a bitter end - it gives them some sort of sense of reality. But, when you're dealing with reality, I feel like films should discover the part that is happy. That's also reality. Things working out is a reality. It's encouraging.

Portray the world for what it is, and you will find truth.
