According to McBrown, an uncle, impressed by her talents, sponsored her trip to the US to help her pursue her dreams. However, her plans were cut short when she was deported shortly after arriving.
The actress described how devastated she felt, crying throughout the flight back to Ghana and upon her arrival in Kumasi.
She said after returning to Ghana, she heard a radio advertisement for auditions for actors and actresses. Excited about the opportunity, she attended, but the auditions did not result in a movie role for her.
She mentioned that during the process, the production team needed someone to handle costumes, a demanding job no one was willing to take. However, McBrown volunteered for that role, recognising it as her chance to be on set.
Though she was new to the industry and had no experience, she said she used the opportunity to learn. She credited Samuel Nyamekye, the CEO of Miracle Films, for mentoring her during that period.
Through hard work and dedication, McBrown gradually rose in the film industry. She has since directed eight movies and produced more than five, cementing her position as one of Ghana’s most influential figures in cinema.
