‘Lovecraft Country’: Wunmi Mosaku on Her Journey From ‘Annie’ Fan to Starring in HBO’s Bold New Series

It’s Lovecraft Country premiere day! I’m quite psyched for this especially powerful and bold show to get out into the world, but the show’s big debut is also the perfect reason to shine a light on the incredible Wunmi Mosaku. I had the pleasure of chatting with Mosaku in January at the Sundance Film Festival for her stellar upcoming feature release, His House, and if you couldn’t already tell from the title of that article, I’m a big fan and think it’s only a matter of until she becomes a household name. With that in mind, it’s probably no surprise that I was beyond thrilled to have Mosaku as a guest on Collider Ladies Night to learn more about her sources of inspiration and her journey to Lovecraft Country. We discussed a little of everything including her early passion for Annie, her experience studying at The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, what it was like working with Zack Snyder on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and more before making our way to her new HBO show. Check it all out in this edition of Collider Ladies Night!
