Top Boy Season 2 just dropped on Netflix and we are so proud that two members of The Big House Nkechi and Ilani, both make their debut in the series.
Nkechi first stepped into The Big House in 2019. The following year, she landed a part in the autumn production, The Ballad of Corona V.
‘I’ve achieved so much since coming to The Big House’ she says, ‘their support has been invaluable to me.’
Nkechi is excited to make her debut as Keziah in Top Boy.
‘I remember watching Top Boy when I was about 11 years old… I remember seeing people that looked like me, that sounded like me and that struggled like me on TV for the first time. 11 Years later, it IS me. Life is an incredible journey and I’m truly grateful and humbled by every second of it. It’s been amazing to have a small part to play in this massively important and beautiful story.’
In 2020, Ilani became a member of TBH before joining the cast of Top Boy to play Samsi.
Ilani says ’Joining Top Boy as a recurring character has been an amazing experience. Every moment has been special and I’m so thankful for everything. It’s been life changing, the outcome has been insane!’
We are thrilled to see what’s in store for Nkechi and Ilani’s and what’s next for them on their journey. Catch them in Top Boy Season 2, on Netflix now.
