You can watch the official “Brotherhood” trailer below. But first, here are some comments and reactions we took to get you excited about the upcoming title’s premiere:
After I lost the distribution deal for “Sugar Rush,” I was super excited to jump on this project. “Brotherhood” will be released on the same day across 14 African countries including Ghana and Uganda.
Ope Ajayi, Genesis Pictures (Distributor) Representative
I am happy to be in Nollywood, which I stumbled into but now fully involved in. In this role, I enjoyed being able to represent what the police force ought to be rather than what we currently have.
Falz the Bahd Guy
I refused the script at first because I didn’t think we were there yet or it could be properly executed in Nigeria. Then I asked Jade to show me one of her works which was similar to this project. It was after she showed me “Gangs of Lagos” that I hopped on board.
Another reason I was not quick to accept the script was because most of the offers I receive are usually comic characters, and after two decades in the comedy industry this was refreshing for me to accept.
Basketmouth
I was excited when Jade informed me of the lead character in this project, and at the time my wife and I had just put to bed but I knew I still wanted to be on this project. I am grateful for the opportunity.
Working on set and getting into character was super easy because the production team had brought everything to life and all I needed was to just bring my skills as an actor.
Tobi Bakre
I have always wanted to do action movies or be in a Marvel superhero movie, so this was huge for me and I am grateful to Jade for this beautiful opportunity to bring ‘Goldie’ to life. The entire production team made coming to work very easy, thank you!
Toni Tones
I am actually a thespian and online comedy was actually accidental but continued after receiving positive feedback from the viewers, so this project is a dear one. As Basketmouth said, playing characters outside the usual comic space is also something to be happy about.
Mr Macaroni
I must commend the on-set experience and I appreciate the impact this project will make on my relative novice years in the industry.
Seyi Awolowo
I was humbled to be on set with an array of stars, and I’m grateful for how the whole project played out smoothly.
Korede Ajayi
I commended the entire cast and crew of this project. In all of my 27 years of acting this was the biggest set I have been on; I had to keep calling myself to believe it was real. I promise the audience will be blown away.
