A big name in his native France, Omar Sy has had a successful foray into Hollywood with several blockbusters but the actor and comedian says mastering English as a new language remains a challenge.
Sy, who shot to fame with comedy TV roles, won a Cesar award – France’s equivalent of the Oscars – for his portrayal of a caregiver to a quadriplegic man in “The Intouchables”.
He relocated to Los Angeles and appeared in “X-Men: Days of Future Past” and this summer’s box office hit “Jurassic World”.
