Damson Idris talks Season 4 Finale on Twitter Spaces... Teases Season 5!
Damson Idris hops on to the new Twitter drop-in audio chat feature called Twitter Spaces to talk Season 4 finale of SnowFall with fans. He chats about his favorite scene with Amin Joseph and chemistry with Angela Lewis.
Idris was born in Peckham, South-East London, and is of Nigerian descent. He is the youngest of six children. He played football and dreamed of being the next Cristiano Ronaldo. He also played rugby, and in 2002, he shook the hand of Queen Elizabeth II when his team took part in her Golden Jubilee. Idris's elder siblings—three brothers and two sisters—have all gone on to corporate careers in law, business, and IT, so when he realized a professional football career wasn't going to happen, he ended up studying drama at Brunel University London. He received a BA Honours degree in Theatre, Film & Television studies.
