Nigeria film maker Obi Emelonye epitomises the industry and so do his hit films Mirror Boy and Last Flight to Abuja. While he is Nollywood royalty, the director is still trying to break into the powerhouse that is Hollywood. Emelonye hopes to do this by casting Oscar-winner Halle Berry in his up-and-coming movie Safari, he has sent her the script, the rest will be up to the X-Men star. Speaking about the allure of Nollywood, the award-winning film maker said Nigerian films were popular because they remain quintessentially African. -- #Goldmynetv #Goldmyne #VideoWheels #NigeriaMusic #NigeriaEntertainment #LiveShows #Wizkid #Ycee #Davido #PSquare #TiwaSavage #Flavour #Phyno
