Top Boy Star Exposes Show - Dris “TOPBOY” Ep93 FT GULLY

"In this episode of The Blue Tick Show, actor Shone Romulus, known for his role in Top Boy, sits down for an interview with Mike and Gullyman. He discusses his involvement in the show, revealing how he was initially hesitant to participate and was making a 6 figures income from illicit activities at the time.
Shone Romulus also talks about the impact of Top Boy on his life, both positive and negative. While the show brought him fame and opportunities, it also limited his freedom and made him a target for judgment. He shares anecdotes about encounters with fans and the challenges of maintaining a normal life while being in the public eye. Shone also reveals details about the production of Top Boy, including the budget for the Netflix seasons and his contributions to ensuring the show's authenticity. He also expresses his disappointment with the latest season and discusses the possibility of a spin-off series.

When the character (dris) is actually the actor's personality

[@londonboss2111]

Far from 😂😂😂

[@Ricky-vp5ee]

After a big break like the show he don’t wanna do a 9-5 or regular man job he’s had a taste of show biz but they ain’t hiring him no more for no big projects. But he doesn’t wanna accept it so it’s waiting on another lifeline once in a lifetime thing. No other big shows want him but he was such a good actor. Because he wasn’t acting he’s just a real one from ends who tryna do the civ ting & figure it out and it’s fucking him up cos he looks lost. Tryna be a musician give that up movies or podcast/ jobs.

I met Shone, about 6/7 years ago. Went to buy a second hand motorbike from Shpock. Turns out it was his! Went to his house in Bromley to collect it. Proper humble guy.

[@presacanariox2558]

Should think about doing Top Boy spin-offs, similar to Power, for example could show the story of how Drizz became Drizz ect the Uk needs it to continue somehow some way! Big up to you tho man when they killed your character it became kind of dead anyways. Bring back Drizz!!

[@SeanB84-ws9tg]

That is a fantastic idea

[@mikemollyzz]

awesome podcast and very interesting to get to know the man who played dris,who was def my favourite character from top boy. im not familiar with the podcast or hosts cos im from down under in aus, but word to the host... bro dont think that sean needs any advice with his finances or his "career" or future from you hahaha. u can tell sean is a real OG and tbh even if he didnt make as much as the others from top boy... this guy doesnt need to rely on top boy to be doin well in life. u talking bout them "taking the piss" and u offering ur advice.. seems like ur coming from a good place.. but bro just tone it down cos yehs... if u know u know. but yehs killa podcast and thankyou for having sean on so us audience can get to know him better! 👌👌👌

[@riskoebeats]

He was saying first 2 seasons were real and based on real ppl an story’s that happened in Hackney….Instead of Interviewer asking him about that his next question is “the shows about beef does that mean they have beef in real life” wtf kinda question is that dead interviewer ffs.

I think it sounds like hes had a cold/allergies (hayfever often looks like youve been crying) and can hear some congestion not heavy breathing. He holds himself so well considering too his friend just died and that hes probably slightly tired of being known as Dris and it defining his life.

[@abigailj5763]

@@Kay7M there's a lot to get. If you have a guest on your show who explicitly explains why he doesn't like to only be referred to as the name of a character to the point where he even says he avoids going on live because that's the only comments he gets then it only takes a little bit of respect to include his real name in the title as well. The title is what grabs people, you're not as likely to remember the name if its put in the description as most people don't even read that. It doesn't take a genius to figure out how to create a title that incorporates both his real name and his character name
