Nollywood seems to have caught the fever of movie remakes and its thrilling to see. Last year, we saw the remake of Living In Bondage accrue massive success in the cinemas. The producers of Glamour Girls also announced the 1994 classic is getting a sequel as well.

 

Kene Okwuosa and Moses Babatope, FilmOne Entertainment co-founders while speaking to the press said they were excited about the upcoming project. “We are happy to once again, bring magic to the big screen by producing this breathtaking movie. In ‘Domitila’, we have identified an entertaining and artistic masterpiece that would appeal to different generations of film lovers; and to know we are partnering with great professionals in Zeb Ejiro and Omoni Oboli is soothing. Thus, we look forward to a phenomenal accomplishment”

‘Domitila’ follows the story of a young, naive village girl who accidentally witnesses the murder of a top politician. The sequel will show Domitila with the help of her friends stopping at no length to prove her innocence.

 

Zeb Ejiro, the owner of the directorial credit of the film shared, “When we first made ‘Domitila’, it was a story inspired by societal challenges that have over time, proven to not only be akin to the ’90s but trans-generational. And so, in recognition of its relevance in these times, we have decided to make a sequel to the story, factoring recent socio-cultural advancements”

Omoni Oboli who’s the creative  director for the sequel to the critically  acclaimed ‘Domitila’ shared;

“When I was a teenager, I auditioned for ‘Domitilla’ but I didn’t get any part; perhaps, I was too tiny. Today, I’m proud to be one of the stars, executive producers, producer and creative director of the sequel. It’s going to be a very exciting ride and I can’t wait”, said Oboli.

 

The classic film was instrumental in bringing to fame stars like Anne Njemanze who played the lead role of Domitila, Sandra Achums, and Kate Henshaw. Others in the film were Enebeli Elebua,  Maureen Ihua, Charles Okafor, and other now veterans in the industry.

 

‘Domitila’ will grace the cinema screens by the first quarter of 2021. However, production will not start until later on in the year.
