The actor who possesses Ugandan roots first caught the public eye for his role in Get Out, a movie that got him nominated for an Oscar in a category that had legendaries like Denzel Washington.
He gained much more prominence in the Marvel sci-fi blockbuster Black panther where he acted as King T’challa’s best friend and advisor known as W’kabi. Since then the actor who’s parents all hail from Uganda has never looked back and has gone ahead to establish himself as one of the elites in Hollywood.
