Tonto Dikeh 5 characters we would love to see actress play
We have all seen Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh play the Princess, Drug Addict (Damage), mother, maid, village girl among others.
But
then, there are roles we are yet to see the actress interpret,
characters we think she would do a great job bringing to life.
(Instagram)
1. A character with Multiple Personality Disorder
It's
easy to picture the actress interpreting a character with two or more
distinct personality! Her ability to deliver isn't in question.
2. A music teacher.
She's a
singer! So if she decides to interpret the role as a dancer or singer,
we would just be happy to watch her bring her musical side to a film.
3. A Nerd.
Picture an
eccentric, intellectual, unfashionable, and socially awkward Tonto on
set. Won't it just be fun to watch the actress as a sci-fi geek or
something close to it?
(DB Records )
4. A villain in an action movie.
While we are sure she can pull off being the hero, we'd rather stick to having her be the perfect villain.
5. A real life character
Whenever
the term "biopic" becomes popular in the Nigerian film industry, we
would love to see the award winning actress interpret a real life
character.
So, which character would you love to see the actress play?
