Following the premiere of Netflix+Shondaland\u2019s Queen Charlotte, the internet has been abuzz about the spectacular cast ensemble they had brought together to tell the story of Charlotte\u2019s rise to prominence and power.<\/p>\n
But the actor most Ghanaians might be more interested in is India Amarteifio, who plays the titular Queen Charlotte.<\/p>\n
By origin of her surname, Amarteifio, it is quite clear she has some Ghanaian heritage.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe looks like me, obviously,\u201d the modern Queen Charlotte, played by Golda Rosheuvel says in an interview with Netflix.<\/p>\n
She reveals that in order to pick an actress that could effortlessly transition the character from her older years to her younger self, she had to submit a picture of her younger self to the casting crew.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know I\u2019d sent a picture of my younger self. I wanted it to be a surprise. I left it to the universe to bring us India Amartefio,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
According to her, the wide acclaim the precision in casting has received from all those that have seen the show made her \u201c joyous at their reaction. We\u2019d done our job.\u201d<\/p>\n
