Popular Yoruba actress, Regina Chukwu, is a first rate
actress who knows her job even though she is an Igbo
woman from Enugu State. Being Igbo has not in any
way limited the types of roles she could take on as a
Yoruba role interpreter. She is so in her element and
at home with Yoruba films that she has produced
many films of her own.
She is such a
consummate actress
that believes every
actress should be
able to deliver any
role given, even if it
asks some questions
of personal beliefs.
In a recent chat with
Potpourri, she said
she has done some
sex scenes in her
career.
“I have done it one
or two times. Acting
is make-believe so
you have to be
comfortable when
you’re doing it and
you also have to take
into consideration
that our society does
not really support
some things; they
may just condemn you for doing some things but that
does not mean we would not do it.
We only have to be considerate when we’re doing it.
There was this movie I shot but I don’t think it’s out
yet; we were supposed to shoot a scene where we
were making love, serious lovemaking. After the
director did it and everything, I made sure that they
did a kind of behind the scene shoots where people
would see that I was actually wearing clothes. I made
that demand because of my children particularly,
they are kids and they would not understand. I made
them do a behind the scene so that when we finish,
people can see that so many people were in the
room while we were doing it”
Gabriel Afolayon, Tayo Odueke and some other
people starred in the movie with her.
