- Actor
Desirè Junior Bindè, known professionally as Desire Junior Binde, is a UK-based multi-faceted actor of African descent who was raised in Italy. Being Afro-Italian, Binde's native tongue is Italian, but he has studied both English and French to fluency. Just as his love of language drove him to be fluent in multiple languages, Binde's many other passions inspired him to venture into a wide variety of endeavors.
Binde is accomplished in African dance and martial arts - expertly specializing in Tae Kwon Do and kickboxing, having dedicated years of extensive practice to both. After moving to England, Binde pursued his passion for acting. He enrolled in the drama school ActUpNorth in Manchester to hone his craft. His other passions complemented his acting skills, giving him a unique range that makes him versatile and distinguished in the industry.
His pursuit - and the hard work it required - eventually led him to land the role of the pivotal character Enmae in the 2023 Netflix television series Kaala Paani, where his martial arts discipline proved helpful in enhancing the authenticity of Enmae's action scenes. Prior to his breakout role in Kaala Paani, Binde appeared in a variety of film projects, including the documentary miniseries Waco Untold: The British Stories, in which he portrayed the character Philip Henry. Binde has expressed his gratitude for every single one of his acting opportunities as they have helped him develop his "confidence and experience."
