Eight-year-old Aaron Kingsley Adetola is a young actor on-the-rise who is a force to be reckoned with! Since age 2, Adetola has been booked and busy. With roles in projects such as Disney+’s “Rise” to his most recent film “A Thousand and One,” he is the embodiment of talent and versatility.
Before reaching double digits, he has already been honored with a nomination at this year’s NAACP Image Awards for Outstanding Performance by a Youth in a Motion Picture. Receiving such a nomination has been a dream for Adetola, and to achieve it so early into his acting journey is an incredible milestone. He shared that after learning the news of the nomination, he immediately went to celebrate with friends and family, going out to dinner for his all-time favorite meal: “pizza with extra cheese and extra sauce.”
