Virtual Red Carpet Glam! Mo Abudu, Omoni Oboli & More Attend Netflix Premiere Of Òlòtūré

No, not even a pandemic could stop the stars celebrating the Netflix premiere of Ebonylife film Òlòtūré from dressing up in black to highlight the seriousness of the movie’s theme and to show support for women’s rights ― all from the comfort of their own homes.

The Netflix original movie which will debut today Friday October 2 will also be celebrated with a Watch Party to ensure that fans do not feel left out of the glamorous occasion.

Anticipation for the movie has been building since 2019, but this is the first time the film will be seen, aside from exclusive private screenings in Lagos and Los Angeles, and the Carthage Film Festival in Tunisia. The expectation has only increased since Netflix announced a few weeks ago that Òlòtūré will be only the second Nigerian film to be released as a highly coveted Netflix Original.

Set in Nigeria, Òlòtūré is a viscerally depicted, unsettling thriller that tells the story of a young, naïve Nigerian journalist who goes undercover to expose the shady underworld of human trafficking. In her quest to uncover the truth, she pays the ultimate price – one that takes her to the verge of no return.

Òlòtūré was directed by Kenneth Gyang and stars Sharon Ooja, Omoni Oboli, Blossom Chukwujekwu, Omowunmi Dada, Kemi ‘Lala’ Akindoju, Wofai Fada, Sambasa Nzerib, Omawumi Megbele among others.
