You are to cast one of these actresses for the role of “Soft Spoken rich baddie” Who would you choose?

After the premiere of The Trade, I got chatting with producers. I asked them why they didn’t just let Eric get away? He was the perfect villain. You’re rooting for him.
Guess what they replied? Nigeria and Nigerian board restrictions.
Another time, I was cast for a movie that ended being cancelled because the NPF refused to approve how the script portrayed them. It was either they shot it without NPF which was the soul of the plot (ie use any other uniform that doesn’t suggest the NPF, what’ll be the point?), or not shoot at all. They canceled.
The Nigerian creative industry is not just restricted by “obvious” factors… there’re things that go on behind the scenes that greatly stifle ideation.
In the movie Top Gun, the US Navy provided them access to the Ranger aircraft carriers, fighter jets, and ACTIVE-DUTY military pilots to perform the aerial stunts.
In Transformers, the production received massive logistical support. They provided them with helicopters, Raptors, and actual military bases to use as filming locations.
In Ironman, Marvel Studios was granted access an air force base and actual military aircraft to film the scenes where Tony Stark's experimental suit clashes with the US Air Force.
To mention but a few.
But in Nigeria, if you wear Camo as a civilian, you’ll witness wonders.
The state of this nation affects EVERYTHING. It ruins things in ways you can’t begin to imagine until you have skin in it.
You go outside to shoot, you have to deal with street louts. You have a script that touches major sectors, and you’ll have to seek approvals upon approvals, or risk your movie been banned after release.
If this series even remotely refers to a particular national body, and the plot becomes too real, it’ll only take one person who feels attacked to can it.
These people are not stupid. They’re also navigating Nigeria like everyone else.
Let’s be kinder with our criticism.

You know why I love this app? It’s because you get to learn things whether you like it or not.
Only from this tweet have I learned that the movie “Gang Of Lagos” is in court for a costume they used in the movie. The producers (and Amazon) got hit with a lawsuit from the Isale-Eko Descendants Union over how the movie portrayed the Eyo Masquerade and the Isale-Eko community. The court basically ruled they misrepresented the culture, turning a revered tradition into something tied to gangs and violence. They were ordered to publicly apologize, and there were calls to pull the film.
Also, I was reminded of the past times where a movie is released and the producers get sued because they tried to be real with every element of the acting and the public calls for the movie to be taken down. The wonders you see in Nigeria!
A movie was made and all everyone is more concerned about is the prison uniform worn on set, not the acting and execution. Just because it didn’t suit your supposed narrative, you all labeled it “unfit and poor researching” instead of calling out your government that loves hiding its failures in poor policies and intimidation.
Well, what do I know? But one thing I know is I’m definitely watching this movie. Did you all see the actors’ lineup? Menhhhh 🔥

How does it feel like you aren’t watching a Nigerian film? Are they Nigerians? Are they talking like Nigerians?
Does it look like a prison or not?
YES? You can’t genuinely use the uniform as a basis for your argument.
Noni Edozie@Hibana122
Nigerian prisons don’t even use this uniform, when will this new Nollywood ever be genuine. Feels like I’m no longer watching a Nigerian movie

You can always tell when a Nigerian writer did not grow up or live in Nigeria by how they write

If I am to google what carbonara is while reading a book, they should google akara.
Idk why we have to hand hold anybody in fiction.
Lukas Not Podolski@OtitoNosike
This is hilarious. But I also understand the writer who chooses to substitute akara with bean cake. How many people outside Nigeria actually know what akara is? If you are writing for an international audience, it makes perfect sense to use vocabulary that will be readily understood by the people you are trying to reach.

@DavidAririeri You won't understand.
You obviously do not know her history.

lmaooo op labeled a woman as having low self‑esteem and being mentally ill simply because the woman chose a white sperm donor?
you people overrate yourself on this godforsaken app. Jesus fucking Christ!
English
I don't see anything wrong with what she did aside from the fact that you're being subtly racist here.
you people are weird asf man.
Z@Zirachukwu
The concept of being a black woman living in a predominantly black country but choosing a white sperm donor so you can have a mixed race child. Can’t tell if it’s mental illness, colorism, low racial self esteem or all 3.
English
Knowing her history?
It's the inferiority complex and low self esteem.
Any other person I wouldn't been speak on it , but this one ? Omo
I can't believe she did that.

She experienced worse, the man left her at the alter on their wedding day, he came back, apologized, they started dating again, got married, nd the cheating continued, at some point she started bleaching her skin just to look like the women he chased, she almost ran mad

From the reports then she was adopted from an orphanage so which mother?

Growing up, and being an audience to what Nigerian blog, internet users and civilians called Her?
Calling another woman hoe?
Reading her book, and watching what transpired.
The audacity to reduce DV to karma.
What a disgusting, and audacious move from you @tokstarr

A lot of you never held any leadership role prior to marriage. Not your offices, not in associations you belong to, not even headboy of your primary school, so marriage is the one place you finally get to be the local champion leader you’ve been having wet dreams about.
Pathetic

You can’t lead a woman who questions your leadership & unfortunately soon as she women gets a bit of money they think they can lead or question their leaders (man )
