“Arrowhead” singer Courtney Noel landed a small role in the Netflix original film See You Yesterday and is taking aim at Hollywood and the Pop charts. The movie includes Guyanese culture and was filmed in the US.
See You Yesterday was produced by Spike Lee and written and directed by Stefon Bristol who is of Guyanese heritage. Guyanese veteran actor Ron Semple plays a pivotal role in the movie. Courtney’s role was as ‘Kingsley’, a dominoes player.
Speaking of the film, he said, “It was absolutely amazing! Stefon gave me permission to improvise and add our unique Guyanese flavour to the pot. Stefon wasn’t born in Guyana so some of the nuances of someone who had lived [here] ‘a real GT man’ were a bit unfamiliar to him. Having lived in Guyana for 17 years and as a frequent visitor I was more familiar with the slang like budday.”
