It’s Day 2 of Shark Week!

Today on the show, actress Wunmi Mosaku joins Chioma in the London podcast studio. The two dive into Sinners — from how she landed the role to the powerful lessons she learned while portraying Annie.

“My team said, ‘Ryan Coogler wants to meet you for his next film.’ And I was like, ‘Ryan Coogler knows who I am?’” she recalls, reflecting on the moment she was first invited to audition. Fast forward to today: Wunmi has earned her first Academy Award nomination and picked up her first BAFTA just last week.

Wunmi also opens up about why she chose to announce her second pregnancy at the Golden Globe Awards. “I wanna be present, and if I’m divorcing my head and my body, I’m not really welcoming the baby into this too,” she says, referencing the difficulties of keeping her pregnancy under wraps. “It feels like you’re kind of taking them for granted. They’re here with you.”

Spotting a gap in the maternity fashion industry, Wunmi shares why she decided to launch her own line, Iyadé — meaning “mother has arrived” in Yoruba. She even hints at what she might be wearing to the Academy Awards next weekend. Listen here!
