Funke Akindele, an actress, is about to shatter box office records with her much awaited film, Everybody loves ❤️ 😍 Jenifa, which opens on December 13, 2024.
Funke is certain that her most recent project, which makes use of her distinctive marketing approach and intensive promotion, would generate an incredible N5 billion in ticket sales.
Speaking at a recent Exhibitor Soirée, Funke expressed her confidence, stating, “We can beat N5 billion; I have faith.”
The actress also urged the audience to combat piracy, which had a significant impact on her previous film, A Tribe Called Judah.
“I plead with you guys, I know things are hard now, but I want to beg you to be security conscious. People use their phones to film.
“Remember what happened to us last year, with A Tribe Called Judah? Please let’s be very careful, let’s be vigilant. It’s our movie. We want to make money from it. Imagine what we would have made if A Tribe Called Judah wasn’t pirated.
“But we thank God. This is another opportunity, please protect this film for me. Please, I beg you in the name of God, no phones. We had to record a video to tell people, no recordings.”
The trailer for Everybody Loves Jenifa hasn’t dropped yet, but Funke and her team have launched several promotional campaigns to build anticipation for the film.
The movie boasts a star-studded cast, including, Nancy Isime, Stan Nze, Bisola Aiyeola, Patience Ozokwo, Chimezie Imo, Jackie Appiah, Folarin Falana (Falz) and Isaac Olayiwola (popularly known as Layi Wasabi).
