Movie actor Clement Bonney popularly known in showbiz circles as Mr. Beautiful has said Agya Koo and Mr. Ibu cannot cat any serious role in movies except comedies.

"There are other actors/actresses who can never play any other role apart from the roles they are known for. For example, “Agya Koo and Mr. Ibu cannot act any other serious role in movies apart from comedy,” he said.

Mr. Beautiful disclosed this to Mike 2 on the Entertainment Hall Show on Adom FM, during an interview over the weekend which was to talk about why he is no more seen in the acting business.

He added that if some producers in Kumasi have decided to end his acting career abruptly because of his party affiliation then they have reduced the quality of entertainment to Ghanaians because he made a lot of Ghanaians develop love for Ghanaian movies.

“Mr. Beautiful is a multi-talented actor and in Ghana there are only four multi-talented actors/actress; Nana Ama McBrown, Akrobeto, Majid Michel and myself (Mr. Beautiful),” he claimed.

The actor revealed that though he has never been featured in any movie since 2012 after campaigning for President John Mahama he lives a good life. “I have my own infinity car and have my family so I have no worry.”

Mr. Beautiful disclosed that a renowned mobile phone dealer, MC phone near Odo Rice at Circle in Accra gave him GH¢100,000 to start a movie but he returned the money to the man and said “God has not told me to produce movies and if I should do it, the movie producers will sabotage me and it will be costly.”

He recalled an instance where radio personality, Fiifi Banson, tried to persuade some movie producer to reconsider featuring him in movies. According to him, Jackson Bentum, a producer, stated bluntly that he (Mr. Beautiful) is a member of the NDC so his movies will not sell in Kumasi because most of these producers are members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

“If Kumasi movie producers have rejected my movies because of my party affiliation, I am doing a feasibility study to act and market my movies in Accra rather than in Kumasi,” Mr. Beautiful stated.
