You Never Know When You’ll Need It…
Drama school taught me more than lines and blocking it taught me how to feel, how to sit in discomfort, how to build emotion from nothing and let it live truthfully. The kind of work that stays with you long after the scene ends.
You never really know when you’ll need to tap back into it… but it’s always there, waiting. Every exercise, every note, every moment of doubt all part of the foundation.
Today feels like one of those moments of reflection. From training rooms and rehearsals… to seeing the work out there, streaming, living its own life.
Reminder to myself don’t forget the journey. Every step mattered. Every version of you got you here.
🎬 Just added a couple of fresh scenes to my Spotlight 👌🏽
💀 One ends with me dead on the floor, the other surrounding friendship, Comedy and love .
But which is which? 👀
🖤 Bad Nun 3 – horror, chaos, and… let’s just say, not everyone makes it out alive.
💔 Just Say Yes – drama meets romance and friendship.
Both films now streaming on Amazon Prime 📺
One’s a scream, one’s a slow burn — both a blast to shoot. Big thanks to the teams behind them!
Full reel now up on Spotlight 🎥 link in bio.
Also thank you for everyone who nominated @cgtawards 🖤

AAAHH 🚀✨ … and just like that, I can finally share it — my first Star Wars project!! SCROLL RIGHT ➡️
I had the absolute honour of working as a puppeteer on Season 2 of Disney’s #Andor 🙌 @disneyplus . Shot this back in February 2023 under a super-tight NDA, so no one would have ever known it was me (hidden inside a HUGE suit 👀).
Got to work closely with the incredible SFX /Star Wars Character suit team and was treated impeccably by the amazing crew at Lucasfilm — thank you so much! Also huge shoutout for keeping me hydrated and feeding me Liquids through a straw!!
It’s not main cast but it’s an official Star Wars credit🤘🏽 💫soooo I’m celebrating the process and the journey ..every step…Dreams really do come true.
FELLOW ACTORS: Keep pushing, keep going!!
Stream @andorofficial now on @disneyplus 👌🏽

Last night was something really special (Scroll Right)➡️
I had the privilege of attending the screening of Nyla’s Story, the RNIB design fiction drama, at the British Library in London. Sitting in that room and watching the film come to life on screen, knowing I was part of it, is a moment I will honestly never forget.
Being cast in this project meant a lot to me from the very beginning, but seeing the impact it has and the conversations it’s starting makes it even more meaningful. This is more than just a film. It’s about visibility, understanding, and creating change for people who are blind or partially sighted. To be part of something that has the potential to genuinely improve lives is incredibly humbling.
The whole experience, from production through to the screening, reminded me why I love storytelling. Being surrounded by such a passionate, talented group of people who truly cared about what we were making created an environment that felt inspiring and important. I feel very grateful to have shared that space with you all.
Thank you to everyone involved for trusting me to be part of this journey. I walked away last night feeling proud, emotional, and very aware of how privileged I am to do what I do.

Split or steal… what would you do? 👀
I took on the PayPal+ Peak climb on London’s Southbank and let’s just say loyalty gets tested at the top 🧗♂️🔥
PayPal+ is their first-ever loyalty programme (and yep, it’s free). You earn points just by shopping… but this launch? They’ve taken it to another level.
A 10-metre climb where every move counts. “Climb & claim” your way to exclusive merch, points, and a bit of adrenaline along the way.
Honestly… this was SUCH a challenging experience. It didn’t look that high from the ground, but once you’re on it — it feels really, really tall and actually pretty daunting 😅
The first climb was slightly easier and I managed to get through it, keeping in mind I’m raising money for Missing People — so I used that as a mental push to get me up there. Really proud I got it done 🙌
The second climb? A lot tougher than I expected. Definitely more challenging, but I pushed through
It’s a long video, but trust me… !!! it’s quite funny to watch 😂 Let me know your thoughts — would YOU climb this wall?
The official PayPal climbing wall opens to the public tomorrow, so get involved!
Thanks, PayPal 🙏

Over halfway there 🙌
I’ve raised £230 of £350 for Missing People ❤️
This cause means a lot to me. They support families facing the unimaginable when a loved one goes missing, and help reunite people with those who care about them.
The Hackney Half Marathon is just over 2 weeks away, so training is fully on… let’s go 🏃♂️🔥
If you can donate, I’d be so grateful. Any amount makes a difference 🙏Link in bio 🔗Scroll right for video updates ▶️

Stillness is where the story begins.
Every role starts in silence… before the shift.

But on a side note…
So… I dropped my new beardless 2026 headshot into Google Images and these were the comparisons 😅
Marlon Wayans Jay Ellis
Jussie Smollett?
Michael B Jordan .. I mean… I’ll take it 😂
Nathaniel Rehman (low key know this guy 🤪❤️)
@nathaniel_stillgrowing
But be honest—who’s the closest?
Or did Google miss completely? 👀
First day in the new studio.
And it felt like a shift.
Stephen Stallone and I first worked together five years ago when he sat for my Proud Portraits series. Since then he has gone on to build serious momentum as an actor, and we both agreed it was time to create something that reflected where we are now.
This shoot marks a clear development in my portraiture. More character led. More controlled. Light shaped with intent rather than added for effect. Subtle colour grading designed to enhance tone and atmosphere, not transform the image into something it never was.
The studio allows me to slow down, sculpt the light properly and build images that feel cinematic without being theatrical. Honest but intentional.
This is the direction.

Forget the moody LFW pose — I met Pikachu. Childhood dream: unlocked. ⚡️ it’s a little corny but i love him 😍
The Jimmy Paul x Pokémon @pokemonnewsuk show last night was iconic chaos in the best way.
Huge thank you to @blackprgroup and @thisispoppr for having me 💙
There are a few more front row snaps if you scroll right 💫 @lovejimmypaul@famirvoll

Popped into ASDA ..💚SCROLL RIGHT ➡️
In a world of chaos, it really is the little things that stop you in your tracks.
A quiet reminder to pause, be grateful, and appreciate the moments you never planned for...
Trying to decide if I look better in real life or in print 😭 probably print 🙈

The perfect pairing:
• One chino styled with a black knit – buttonless, effortless 🖤
• Or layered with a classic turtle neck for winter warmth ❄️
Pair the chinos with the Knit Buttonless in Olive 🌿
And even though it’s winter… why not prep for summer with these Slate Grey shorts ☀️
Love what you do.
