Beyagy is a multilingual Gambian-Italian actor whose love for storytelling began with a simple desire: to make people feel something real. Born in Faji Kunda, Gambia, and raised between the vibrant cultures of Gambia and Italy, he brings a deep emotional and cultural awareness to his performances. While studying in Wales, Beyagy discovered acting as a powerful outlet for connection and expression. A formative opportunity as Ncuti Gatwa’s body double and the character Trooper 6 on Doctor Who inspired him to fully commit to the craft, leading him to train at the Oxford School of Drama. He speaks four global languages, English, Italian, French, Spanish and three African dialects, giving him a rare versatility across roles and cultures. Whether in front of the camera or on stage, Beyagy’s goal is always the same: to tell stories that move people, wherever they are in the world.
