Morgan Oey and Nirina Zubir named FFI 2026 ambassadors
Organizers hope both will help strengthen the national film ecosystem, while Morgan is seen as consistent after an FFI nomination last year.
Festival Film Indonesia 2026 has appointed Morgan Oey and Nirina Zubir as ambassadors for the event. FFI Committee chairman Ario Bayu said the pair were chosen because they are seen as strong storytellers who are relevant to Indonesian cinema. He also described Morgan as a consistent performer, including through his achievement as an FFI nominee last year. Executive chairman and head of the FFI 2026 program division Prilly Latuconsina said Morgan had long attracted her attention as an actor. FFI 2026 event committee member Rangga Djoned added that Morgan is able to play a wide range of roles. Morgan said he accepted the offer after discussing it with Prilly at a press conference in Jakarta on Thursday.
