#18 New Faces Of Nollywood [Photo Gallery]

O.C Ukeje

 He first caught our attention when he won the 2007 Amstel Malta Box Office reality show. His victory got him the lead role in the movie ‘White Waters’, a role that fetched him AMAA’s Best Upcoming Actor award. Six years down the line, Ukeje seems unrelenting, having appeared in well over 50 TV series and movies, including the big budget ‘Half of a yellow sun’, alongside Thandie Newton and Chiwetel Ejiofor. 

2013 was indeed a big year for the actor; he landed eight nominations in the Best Actor Category of different awards, a record rarely achieved in this part of the world. A graduate of the New York Film Academy and a tenor singer/guitarist, O.C. has worked under industry heavyweights including Biyi Bandele, Charles Novia and Tunde Kelani.
