Dear reader,
Hey, you. Yes, you, not the Netflix You.
Strange things that have been lifting my mood in recent days are the old Nollywood costumes that are making rounds on Twitter. They’ve been making me chuckle, not only because they bring back funny memories, but because they look original and familiar at the same time.
As a way to look forward to future Nollywood titles, we kicked off a new series on Instagram titled “Everything You Need to Know”. In this series, uploaded on Mondays, we tell you everything you need to know (that we could find) about a particular Nollywood project in development or yet to be released. You can check them out using the hashtag #NollyDbKeptMeUp. Additionally, we started posting short reviews of pilot episodes with a verdict attached at the end, to aid your decision-making. These reviews can be found under this hashtag, #PilotEpisodeKeptMeUp. If you are yet to be following us on Instagram, you should follow us here. Turn on post notifications cos we have got exciting content for you as the movie steam rises towards the end of the year.
