11-year-old Nigerian child star, Emanuella Samuel, known to many as Emanuella, has made her international movie debut in an Australian action drama titled ‘Survive Or Die’

Emanuella started her career with Mark Angel as a child comedian on the comic actor’s YouTube channel.

She is best known for her feature in the ‘My real face’ episode of the Mark Angel YouTube channel.

Born July 22, 2010, Emmanuella doesn’t seem to want anything to deter her as despite having achieved much like building a house for her parents and buying them a car, the young comedienne has added another feather to her cap professionally.

Shot in Australia in 2018, Emanuella appeared in the film as a guest star alongside major cast like Hawa Barnes, Felino Dolloso and Craig Bourke.

‘Survive Or Die’ follows the story of Shade, a 16-year-old refugee whose escape from her war-torn African country lands her in a remote and uninhabited part of Australia. She must reach civilization whilst fighting for her life in the harsh terrain and from a hunter on a quest for revenge over the death of his son.

The film went on a two-year festival tour before its 2020 and 2021 release on Amazon Prime and YouTube respectively.

Speaking on featuring Emanuella Samuel, the Nigerian/Australian director, Okoduwa said;

“1 million views in just a week!!!. The inclusion of Emmanuella Samuel in this movie may be the driving force behind these high views in just a few days ( based on the comments).”
