My dream is to act in cinema movies, Bollywood- Elvis Alvin Ose | The Guardian Nigeria News

Elvis Alvin Ose is a budding actor and showbiz promoter who has featured in countless movies, comedy series and skits.

An astute lover of entertainment, he was born on the 17th of August, 1991, in Benin City and hails from Ikpobahoka Local Government Area in Edo State.

Boasting a Bachelor of Science degree in Public Administration from the prestigious University of Benin, he is the first child of three children.

In a recent chat with The Guardian, the actor, who says he enjoys watching football and movies, said he is a man who has gotten the principle of life but is still learning at the same time. “I will say I am a fun loving person and a guy with a big heart. I enjoy being an actor and nothing gives me more joy than creating an avenue for people to come and enjoy their money; that is why I create entertainmemt like comedy shows, house, pool and club parties. Being a show promoter means everything to me, I enjoy my job and this is how i earn a living.”

The multi-talented star said he started acting in 2019 and got his first big audition in 2022, before venturing into solo production. Speakinh on some roles and his experience in movies he has been in so far, he said, “I have acted multiple roles, such as a film produced by Slize Entertainment, titled Ogunmen, in which I played Juda, a community CDA personnel. Juda is a rugged and brutal person, a deputy to Obas in the film. My character was very brutal and carried out many nefarious deeds for the Obas, who in turn, protected him.

“It is an interesting movie that I watch even till date. I have featured in countless Nollywood movies like Black Cat, and worked with various actors and actresses. Other movies i have been in include Mad Neighbors Wahala, Room Service, Trouble Makers and so on.”

Adding that he is also involved in real estate business, he said he was once an agent to Reanwa estate building company, based in Lagos. “I do a lot of research in this field and get clients to buy land and houses. From 2022 till date, I have sold over 40 lands and 20 houses. Real estate is also my passion and I create time for it when I am not on set. I make it a priority too alongside my showbiz work,” he said.

Describing his fashion style as exquisite, he said he wears what fits him best and usually dresses in a manner that draws complements and attention to him. “I greatly admire formal clothes but I am often seen wearing jeans and t-shirts. I can’t do without my Givenchy Jeans and top.”

Praising the CEO of Slize Entertainment, Ehimwenma Maxwell as one of his inspirations, he said Maxwell and Nosa Rex are his big motivators in the industry.

Ose said if he was not acting, he would be a full time show promoter and real estate mogul.

Ascribing acting, working on his show promotion business and football as things that make him happy, he added that playing football and games as well as thinking up entertaining content to create, remain his hobbies.

On if there are things he used to do or places he used to go that he could no longer do or go again as he was becoming a known face, he said he did not have that problem. “I Iike to be seen and do my things my way. This has made me a street lover. In the near future, i would love to act in cinema movies as well as in Bollywood; that’s my dream.”

Speaking on if there have been challenges in nurturing his career so far, he said the journey has not been easy, “but I feel I have guidance and God keeps sustaining me. Life is hard but you have to go harder and don’t give up. The beginning is the hardest and when you persist, you will scale through. Don’t let anything weigh you down, just keep working and favour will find you with what you do best,” he said.
