Actor Clement Bonney aka Mr. Beautiful has finally opened up on why he no longer features in Kumawood movies.

Mr. Beautiful’s Speech
Speaking on the Delay Show with Deloris Frimpong Manso, he explained his reason for opting out of the industry.
According to him, ‘the Kumawood producers wanted me to speak Asante Twi and I said no. I will stick to speaking Fante.’
Adding to the matter, Mr beautiful indicated that ‘the producer in-charge of writing subtitles for Kumawood movies also confirmed he couldn’t understand the Fante language’ reason he backed out of the industry.
Mr Beautiful, further said he believes Kumawood is dead and the producers are to be held responsible.
“Where are the local movies now? The cameramen can advise producers and they won’t listen. The excitement in the movie industry is dead. Some of them are just tomato sellers and they migrated into the movie industry…” he said.
Nevertheless, he revealed that he doesn’t intend to retire from acting now.
Reason being that, his happiness is the camera. Aside that he has acquired some wisdom and doesn’t intend to continue as just an actor.
