Call him a Nollywood actor with the broadest and elegant smile, and you are not mistaken. Yul Edochie is the sons of veteran Nigerian actor, Pete Edochie, who strikes us as a man whose career path and amazing dexterity in the act has been pretty shaped from childhood.

As a young man who has gained for himself a huge factor in Nollywood by following the footsteps of his great father, Yul has shown to his fans his dedication, height and perseverance in the movie industry.

Born on the 7th of January, 1982 into a well-grounded Christian family made up of six children, the young handsome actor grew up partly in the eastern part of Nigeria, where he had his basic education and also in Lagos State. Yul is a graduate of the University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State, where he obtained his B.A (Bachelor in Arts) degree in Theatre Arts.

The married father of three kids joined the film industry in the year 2005, and has since then featured in many blockbuster movies. Unlike his father who fits into 'stern' roles easily, soft-spoken Yul, maintains his cool, gentle lover attribute in movies.

The tall, handsome and good actor, known for his baritone voice with some bits of huskiness in it, has a career and fan base that has grown beyond bounds, and today, he is ranked as one of the most sought after actors in Nollywood.
