Akin Omotoso, the Series Director (“The Ghost and The House of Truth”), also took the opportunity to unveil the cast and crew for the series.

 

C.J. Obasi, Daniel Oriahi and Kemi Lala-Akindoju will co-produce and join the cast and crew. Meanwhile, Kate Henshaw, Joke Silva, Bimbo Akintola and Richard Mofe Damijo are among the production’s ensemble cast.

 

Tuesday’s major announcement follows months of speculations regarding a Netflix and Nollywood collaboration involving local filmmakers. The massive success of Genevieve Nnaji ‘s Netflix collaboration on her directorial debut, “Lion Heart”, in 2018 caused this massive move.

Its headquarter is in Los Gatos, California.
