Ghanaian actress Beverly Afaglo has expressed her frustration over the lack of opportunities for veteran actors in the local film industry.

As reported by adomonline.com, the actress, in a post on her Instagram handle, highlighted that 80% of the "old faces" are currently not getting movie roles.

"How many of the old faces do you producers and directors cast anyway? 80% ain’t working. What is going on? Shoutout to all the producers holding us down. The industry needs you. Keep going," she posted.

Beverly revealed that she has only participated in two productions this year, including 'Yaa Basabasa' on YouTube and a movie produced by Steve Ekeso.

She further urged producers to consider her for future projects, citing her versatility as an actress.

"I think I am getting bored. I have done only two productions this whole year: ‘Yaa Basabasa’ on YouTube and one movie produced by Steve Ekeso. Where are the producers and directors? Forgotten about me? I’m a versatile actor ooo. I can do it all. Or you say you want new faces? Or you can’t pay me? Try me," she added.

Beverly Afaglo has an impressive filmography, including titles such as ‘I Love You But’, ‘Return of Beyonce’, ‘Crime to Christ’, ‘Never Again’, ‘Single Six’, ‘Bachelors’, ‘The King’s Bride’, ‘A Northern Affair’, ‘The Game’, and ‘Sidechic Gang’.

In 2010, she won Best Actress in Comedy at the Terracotta Awards in Nigeria and has received numerous nominations in various award schemes.
