An RSC star who was one of the original stars of hit TV show Spooks (MI5 in the USA) Oyelowo took the leap of faith of moving his family to Los Angeles in the pursuit of film stardom.
It duly followed, first with roles in The Last King of Scotland and George Lucas' Red Tails, then parts in more
significant films including Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Lincoln and The Butler.
Now he's filming the biggest role of his career – as Martin Luther King in Lee Daniels' biopic Selma. Oyelowo is a strong and committed Christian – he told The Independent about his personal discovery of faith: "I literally heard God speak to me about how much He loved me. That voice never abated.
Like any relationship, it becomes deeper. It's a hard thing to explain – it's like explaining love to someone who has never fallen in love."
