J’can 'Romeo' at heart: Deshawn Miller’s role mirrors his real-life experiences
Oct 17th, 2024 | Category: FOOD | 7:40#JamaicaGleaner For Deshawn Miller, chef at The Jamaica Pegasus Hotel, playing the part of a male star-lead, student and food vendor in the Jamaican movie 'Romeo n Juliet 4EVA' was an easy task. It was the exact life Miller was living seven years ago before casting. He loved cooking and was pursuing culinary studies in school. He lived at the exact location where the shop and home scenes were shot for the movie, and the cook shop was owned by his parents whom he worked with on weekends. Therefore, acting the role of a young boy with a sick mother, and having to operate a cook shop at night in his yard, was a no-brainer for him.
