Speaking in an interview with Myjoyonline.com, the prolific presenter expressed his delight in appearing in his first movie indicating that he is looking forward to featuring in more of such productions.
“I have had a long term experience with Shirley Frimpong-Manso, working together at Radio Gold, living in the same house for about three years. When she was putting together the script for this one, there was a particular scene that she thought I would be the best person for it,” he revealed.
He said, “this is my first time,” reiterating his interest in acting, “if it’s with Shirley or someone as serious as she is, maybe I will go for it.”
He explained that the reason why is choosy in terms of who he will like to feature for is that, “Shirley is a perfectionist, very critical of what she does, she gets it right all the time. I know what she does in terms of inputs before the final production is out. I would want to work with someone who would make me look good.”
In Adams Apples, KOD plays the role of a fashion designer, which he is in real life, who was approached by an advertising agency to do an advert for a drink called Barima.
Whiles he admits that most of our movies today are not up to scratch, he gave credit to the likes of Shirley and Abdul Salam, “…Shirley, she’s got it going, I give props to Abdul Salam and a few good guys but most of them are still doing crap.”
He said some of the directors are churning out good movies in recent times and must be applauded but “Our major problem over the years has been that of finance but we are getting it done, we are getting there.”
He disclosed that producer and director, Abdul Salam Mumuni has also approached him and expressed his desire to also feature him in one of his movies.
