Forest Whitaker is Nigerian.



Okay okay...I know how Africans like to claim. But on Bravo's Inside the Actors Studio, he said he traced his father's ancestors to Nigeria, from the Igbo tribe. During the show, he also talked about how he really admired the director of the movie Last King of Scotland, for pushing to do it in Uganda instead of South Africa (where they have a better "filming infrastructure"). The movie wouldn't have been as great. In the latest issue of the magazine, we have a great review you should read. Find out why this role, was a "role of a life time" for Forest.
