Interview excerpt below;
.
What is happening to Bimbo Thomas, where have you been?
.
I have been working. I'm going to have a break soon because I'm going to the United States to shoot a film. I should be away for about six weeks.
.
I thought it's going to be a pleasure trip?
.
It's going to be work and pleasure. It's been about three months since I got back from the United States and it's been work, work and work so I will be finding time for holiday in between. It's going to be a mix of pleasure and work.
.
Some actresses shoot movies just to exhibit their cleavages and curves without any message. What should we expect from your own movie?
.
It's different strokes for different folks. I am a theatre practitioner to the core, I read Theatre Arts, I know all the nooks and crannies of it, so I'm not going to do just anything and that is why I took my time and if I'm doing something now, it has to be something reasonable and meaningful. The movie is going to be a tragedy and it's going to be society related. You should keep your fingers crossed.
.
Many feel you have not been able to detach yourself from the character you played in Omo Ghetto, that you have not interpreted other roles well enough. What can you say about this?
.
I don't know why people keep saying this. I have said it that for an artiste to interpret a particular role very well does not mean he cannot handle others in the same manner. I'm an artiste; I'm supposed to be versatile. Omo Ghetto was a success, we thank God but I just did what I was asked to do, it was like an everyday thing, I did not know it was going to be what it was. I have done several other roles; I have acted a wife, doctor, and girly roles that are not in line with violence and such. Although, I hope to be better because we are learning everyday but to the best of my knowledge, I feel I have done better roles, roles that knocked out Omo Ghetto, its just that people happen to love it and I think its still hard for people to detach Bimbo from her role in Omo Ghetto. But I hope that with time they will get out of being stuck to Bimbo in Omo Ghetto.
Happy married life in advance!
Great move
