Yvonne Okoro
Ladies, imagine the man you love, whom you are legally married to and with a child to show for it, tells you that the day you agreed to marry him was the day you went wrong. To make it worst, you caught this same husband cheating on you, not only cheating but cheating with a person of the same sex? G-A-Y as in gay? Yes man to man. Well wait a minute, they call those men bisexual.
Yvonne Okoro, the beautiful Ghanaian actress who people often mistake as Jackie Appiah’s twin sister played Ruby in the romantic, drama and comedy movie ‘4Play’. She played the wife of the bisexual man, who upon finding his husband in the hotel room cheating with his fellow man went into a state of shock.
“4PLAY” is a romantic comedy filled with love, lies, deceit and betrayal created around four best friends. It tells a story of four industrious young ladies and best friends who happen to be caught up with the wrong men in a deceptive web of love. Hence the Good (Jezel and Rex) played by Jacky Appiah and John Dumelo; the Bad (Ruby and Jayke) played by Yvonne Okoro and Omar Sherif; the Ugly (Angie & Alvin) played by Roseline and Majid Michel and finally the Dirty, played by Juliet Ibrahim as Nivera.
Like what any other woman will do, Yvonne begins to look out for reasons why her husband will prefer a man’s backside to a woman’s adorable pus**y. Yvonne was traumatized such that she turned to her friends to share the secret of her husband banging another man and look for encouragement when in actual fact; her friends are no saints and have skeletons in their cupboards.
Yvonne’s role was emotional. She played the role so competently. GhanaCeleberities.Com thinks whoever casted her for that role has done a great job. She brought life to the character. She cried when necessary, and shouted when appropriate. If every movie will come with right castings, we might see tremendous change in the Ghanaian movies.
Yvonne Okoro started acting in 2002 with role in ‘Sticking to the Promise’. Also made a cameo appearance in ‘Tentacles’, a hit mini series produced by the Theo Akatugba for Point Blank Media Concepts. She was then casted to play Jackie Appiah’s resemblances in ‘Beyonce’.
Aside ‘4Play’, Yvonne can boast with the following movies ‘The Return Of Beyonce’, ‘The Return Of Beyonce 2’, ‘Beyonce 2: The President’s Daughter’, ‘Beyonce: The President’s Daughter’, , ‘Desperate To Survive’, ‘The Game’, ‘Agony Of Christ’, ‘Royal Battle’, ‘Queen Of Dreams’, ‘Le Hotelier’ in France and a whole lot more.
Some movie lovers GhanaCelebrities.com spoke to after the premieres were full of praises to the young actress. These are some of the comments… “Wow! I like the movie because of Yvonne Okoro, I never knew she is a real talent, I will look out more for her movies”. “She is so charming, incredible and adorable”. “I think the Ruby role; best fitted her, now we have another talent”. “As emotional as I am, I nearly cried upon seeing Yvonne going through all that with her husband, I think this movie is full of lessons”.
The premiere was well attended, I call it ‘mad rush for 4Play’. I don’t know if it has to do with the fact that Venus Films is the leading production house of Ghanaian movies or whether people came there just to catch a glimpse of‘soft’ porn as the trailer says. But the truth of the matter was that the place was packed to capacity.
I am not good at rating movies; I think this is a good effort from Venus Films. However, my only problem with the movie is the bad language used throughout. I don’t recommend the movie to minors.
Before I forget, the various explicit sex scenes in the trailer were all taken out. Thanks for your supportive “bashing” and constructive criticisms.
