Ben Nugent

Ben Nugent’s filmography is a wild little tour across some seriously different vibes. You might know him from God’s Own Country, that raw, windswept drama set in Yorkshire. If you haven’t seen it, it’s all rain-soaked fields, muddy boots, and a love story that sneaks up on you when you least expect it. The film doesn’t sugarcoat rural life—there’s grit, there’s loneliness, and honestly, the sheep get almost as much screen time as the humans. Nugent fits right into that world; not flashy, just real. Then there’s Onye Ozi, which is a totally different beast. Forget the moody English countryside—this one’s about a Nigerian man landing in London, armed with ambition and, let’s be real, a pretty wild sense of optimism. Things get weird fast. The comedy’s offbeat, kind of satirical, poking fun at immigrant hustle and the weird situations you end up in when you’re chasing the so-called “better life.” Nugent’s role? He brings this sharp, almost blink-and-you-miss-it energy that adds to the chaos. And then, Retribution. This one’s all suspense, dark corners, and that creeping feeling that something’s about to go very, very wrong. It’s not your run-of-the-mill thriller—there’s a psychological edge, and the characters aren’t what they seem. Nugent’s performance is all bottled tension, like he’s hiding twenty different secrets and you’re just waiting for the lid to blow off. So yeah, Ben Nugent isn’t just bouncing between genres—he’s straight-up living in them. One minute he’s in a muddy field, the next he’s dodging trouble in London, and then he’s plunging into the deep end of suspense. Never boring, that’s for sure.
