It’s been two weeks since the nominees for the ninth edition of the highly coveted Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCAs) were announced. And as is the case with every award show, some stars were surprisingly left out of the running for an AMVCA.
Top on the AMVCA snub list for 2023 is popular Nollywood actor, Kunle Remi.
His exclusion from the Best Male Actor in a Drama, Movies or TV Series category for his role in Anikulapo was most unexpected, considering Anikulapo was nominated in 16 categories.
The ‘Half human, full screen god’ as he refers to himself in his Instagram bio took the snub in good faith, responding with a light-hearted post that further endeared him to his fans.
AMVCA snub aside, the actor has starred in several diverse on-screen roles that demonstrate his versatility and prove that he is an actor worthy of note.
Here are five movies streaming on Showmax that has us convinced he is an icon in the making:
