Nigerian-born British actor David Oyelowo is heading for the top and maybe the male version of Lupita Nyong’o, who became an American sweetheart last year after her supporting role in “12 Years A Slave”.
Last week, Brad Pitt was seen in a video singing his surname “OYELOWO” as he introduced him to an audience at the Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards Gala that took place last Saturday.
Now the Breakthrough Performance Award-winner is sharing a magazine cover with media mogul and legendary talk show host Oprah Winfrey, and the film’s director, Ava DuVernay (left).
The two stars, Lupita and David, will star in the film adaptation of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s most recent novel, ‘Americanah’.
