Nollywood actor, Stan Nze has disclosed the only condition he would accept to go nude in a film.
Speaking during an interview with The Nation on Saturday, the actor said that for him to take on a nude role in a film, the script must justify it.
Nze stressed that he would not accept a nude role in a film if the nudity was just for publicity and commercial motives.
Asked what role he is yet to play, the 36-year-old said, “Maybe nude; I have probably never gone nude because I don’t see the need for it but if I see a story that requires it and it is going to be short, modestly well to convey a particular message, why not?”
He further disclosed that he won’t risk playing a role where he is required to jump from a dangerous height.
His words, “Why would I? I have done films when characters jump, but it is done by stunt guys – it is their job. We have stunt actors who get well paid to do their thing. They have the experience, they have the knowledge of how to jump and whatever else that they need to do.
“I’m not going to be foolish and say, because I want to be the best actor in Africa, and then I would jump down and people go do one minute of silence and then move on, it is stupidity. I’m going to be alive, get the right training and do the ones I am meant to do, so that the stunt men can do their job.”
