Directors cause of factions in Kumawood —Boys Boys BY: Jayne Buckman-Owoo Veteran actor Dada Santos aka Boys Boys For sometime now, there has been a perception that there are factions in Kumawood, a situation which some players say has impacted negatively on the industry. With actors such as Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as Lil Win, and Kwaku Manu at loggerheads, some of the players in Kumawood have fallen behind them, but veteran actor Dada Santos, known widely as Boys Boys, says the factions may not be limited to the two actors. “The problem is with the directors and the producers; they have favourites they always want to work with. Sometimes you see a script and it is obvious who can best play a particular role, but they have their own people and will only use them. The director may have about 20 actors that he always falls on and then the producer also comes in with about five of his favourites.
