Recently the young thespian appears in the much anticipated movie Dinner, scheduled for cinema release on 11 November, alongside the veteran actor, RMD and we cannot help but draw a parallel between the two actors, with their similar acting styles, personalities and prominence.
The highly sought after actor who frequently mentions RMD as his muse and mentor has also been compared by fans and media with the likes of African-American actor Denzel Washington as well as British actor Idris Elba.
“We hope to see more of this talented and versatile actor and wish him a long lasting career like the great actors he has emulated and learnt from,” one of Deyemi’s media reps stated.
From DSTV to YouTube, Iroko to Netflix and across local channels, Deyemi has starred in quite a number of hit productions including Road To Yesterday with Genevieve Nnaji and Majid Michel, Tolu Ajayi’s Blink, Falz The Badh Guys’ Soldier (directed by Clarence Peters), If Tomorrow Never Comes with Yvonne Nelson, Beyond Blood with Joseph Benjamin, Ndani TV’s Gidi Up with OC Ukeje, Dowry with Linda Ejiorfor, Blessing Egbe’s Lekki Wives, Uduak Oguamanam’s Desperate House Girls, and Robert Peter’s Hell’s Fury amongst others.
