Nigerian actor and filmmaker Deyemi Okanlawon, has opened up about his experience moving to the acting industry of Japan.
Recall that Okanlawon in March 2025, made his debut in the Asian country’s entertainment world where he embarked on a production partnership with one of Japan’s biggest networks, NHK Japan.
Speaking about his experience, the Nigerian filmmaker described the venture as one of the best of his life.
In his words, “I just got back from filming a sci-fi television series in Japan. They needed an African character, did their research, and called me on board. I was there for three months filming. It was the best experience of my life. If there is anything you know about the Japanese, it is that they have the spirit of excellence.”
