Here are 8 things you need to know about this rising star.
1. He’s a 14-year-old rising actor from Accra, Ghana.

2. Abraham Attah was playing hooky from school when he was approached by a member of the production staff of the Netflix movie Beasts of No Nation. He was brought in for an audition and won the lead role of Agu, an African boy forced into a team of mercenary fighters.

3. He Wasn’t Scared by Beasts’ Violence While Filming, But He was Afraid of Idris Elba. He said, “I was scared because it was my first time shooting a movie. I was afraid of [Elba] at first because I see him to be someone big, and I’m like an ant in front of him,” Attah told People.

  
4. Attah told The Times his favorite scene in the film, “My favorite scene was [when] we were in the jungle, and I was in front of the audience, and behind me, we were going to kill the people who live in the village. So I was the commandant.”

7. Abraham’s new found fame hasn’t changed him in any way. In an interview on Joy FM he told host Lexis Bill, he is still the same person his friends know. “I’m still Abraham; I’m not like a big person. I’m still their friend that they know for a long time. I am still going to be Abraham,”.

8. The young star recently won one of the highest honors at the Venice Film Festival! He walked away with the Marcello Mastroianni Best Young Actor Award.
