Lupita Nyong\u2019o is lauded for her acting talent, impeccable style and killer body.<\/p>\n

The 31-year-old displayed her incredibly toned figure in a white bikini as she enjoyed a stroll along a beach in Maui on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The Mexican-born actress showed off her tiny waist and muscular legs in the pretty Marysia swimsuit, which sported scalloped edging.
She looked like a movie star of yesteryear with her wide-brimmed straw hat and large tortoiseshell sunglasses.<\/p>\n

The Lanc\u00f4me spokes model enhanced her slender waist further with a simple silver belly chain.<\/p>\n

The star then made her way to her colourful sun lounger, where she threw on an elegant white kaftan that sported a blue pattern.
Lupita is seen sitting in the chair soaking up the sun in a photo posted to Instagram that same afternoon.<\/p>\n

\u2018Aloha Hawaii!\u2019 she captioned the serene snap.<\/p>\n

Lupita is in Hawaii to attend the Maui Film Festival, where she will accept the Rainmaker award for her turn in \u201812 Years A Slave\u2019, along with the 2009 documentary \u2018In My Genes\u2019, which she created, directed, edited and produced.<\/p>\n

Later that evening, Lupita looked stunning in a mint green dress at the festival\u2019s opening night reception in picturesque Wailea.
The fitted frock complemented her dark skin tone and clung to her nicely toned frame.<\/p>\n

Lupita \u2013 whose role as abused cotton picker Patsey in 12 Years a Slave earned her an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress \u2013 matched her dress with a green clutch, while strappy heels and Vita Fede jewellery rounded things off.<\/p>\n

The Kenyan star\u2019s appearance at the event comes after she was unveiled as latest addition to the cast of JJ Abrams eagerly anticipated \u2018Star Wars\u2019 sequel, the first of three new films to be made following Disney\u2019s acquisition of the hugely popular franchise.<\/p>\n

Lupita also announced Thursday that she has acquired the rights to adapt the Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie novel \u2018Americanah\u2019 into a film, which she will both star in and produce.<\/p>\n

Taking to social media on Thursday, the stunning 31-year-old excitedly confirmed the rumours.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes!!! \u2018Tis true: I acquired the rights to make a film of this amazing book by this amazing writer. I HIGHLY recommend the read. #Americanah #GrabIt,\u201d she captioned an image of the book cover.<\/p>\n

As reported by The Wrap, Lupita will once again team up with \u201812 Years A Slave\u2019 co-star Brad Pitt, whose production company, Plan B, is also onboard, along with D2 Productions and Potboiler Productions.<\/p>\n

The epic love story tells the tale of young Nigerians Ifemelu and Obinze, whose romance is tested when Ifemelu emigrates to America to get a university education while her boyfriend winds up in London.
They face the toughest decision of their lives when they are later reunited in their homeland.<\/p>\n

A statement released by the star revealed her utter delight at adapting the acclaimed novel \u2013 which was the winner of the 2013 National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction \u2013 for the silver screen.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is such an honour to have the opportunity to bring Ms Adichie\u2019s brilliant book to the screen,\u201d she gushes. \u201cPage after page I was struck by Ifemelu and Obinze\u2019s stories, whose experiences as African immigrants are so specific and also so imminently relatable. It is a thrilling challenge to tell a truly international story so full of love, humour and heart.\u201d<\/p>\n

As well as the blockbuster JJ Abrams \u2018Star Wars\u2019 sequel, Lupita will also voice the character of Rakcha in a remake of The Jungle Book.<\/p>\n
