Veteran Nollywood actor Kanayo O. Kanayo has described himself as a better actor than Hollywood star Denzel Washington.
He claims that it takes a great deal of work, perseverance, energy, patience, and dedication to navigate the complex maze of the acting profession.
Kanayo described himself as a better actor claiming that he puts in more work and is a better actor than Hollywood star Denzel Washington based on that.
In an interview Kanayo likened his movie roles to those of Hollywood’s Arnold Schwarzenegger, claiming that terrible roles do not produce bad actors.
He claimed that Nollywood actors, like him, put in a lot of effort to act and produce good films, unlike what is seen today.
In his words;
“If Denzel Washington puts in the number of hours I put in a production here, his color will change to charcoal the next day,”
“They have come to understudy us. Americans from New York came to study us, and they said guys, ‘we see some efforts here and there, these things take us about one month to sort, how come you achieve it in one week?’ So it was now a course of study for them, they saw the zeal we put in,” he added.
