TW Magazine presents its May 2014 issue starring Half of a Yellow Sun lead actors Chiwetel Ejioforand Thandie Newton.
Fresh off a super busy awards season which saw him pick up the BAFTA award for “Best Actor” and a Oscar nomination, he visited Nigeria to help promote the production.
Having lost his father at the young age of 11, Chiwetel opens up for the first time about how his mother (Obiajulu Ejiofor) raised him and his siblings alone.
He speaks of how the movie Half Of A Yellow Sun resonates with him, as his then 13-year-old mother was directly affected by the Biafra war in which she lost a brother. Chiwetel also speaks candidly about growing up in a very Nigerian household and his hopes for the Nigerian film industry, which he plans to be a part of.
