Former Emmerdale star Asan N’Jie has bagged a role in a Disney film following his controversial sacking from the soap.
The actor, 28, lost the part of Ellis Chapman in the soap when footage emerged of him threatening to stab Hollyoaks' Jamie Lomas, 28, at 2019's TV Choice Awards. N'Jie was seen throwing a punch at his fellow actor Jamie and shouting: 'I'm going to f*****g kill you' in front of shocked onlookers.
In footage from the night, he could be heard saying: 'Do you think you are a f*****g big man? I'm going to f*****g kill you. I'm going to f*****g knife you.'
