The cast list is like a walking award winning list...Screen Goddess, Genevieve Nnaji, Heart throb Ramsey Nouah, Sultry Ini Edo, beautiful Monalisa Chinda and they act with the next generation of Nollywood super stars; sexy Brian Okwara, Uti Nwachukwu, Alexx Ekubo, Uru Eke and Beverly Naya. Also in the film are the hilarious Bishop Ime Umoh, Ini Ikpe and introducing ...all the way from Canada, hunky Bobby Obodo! It is ofcourse directed by the one and only... Desmond Elliot.
l-r: Bryan Okwara, Alexx Ekubo, Bola Aduwo, Uti Nwachukwu, Uru Eke and Davies Bassey(professional still photographer) Bola Aduwo of Nollywooduncut was there live and was granted unfettered access to the set. In a one on one chat with, Emem Isong one of the producers, she explained; 'We just finished the premiering of a movie (I'll Take My Chances) in Uyo and we had all these stars that we invited all in one place, my mind was ticking and I said "There is no way I will let all these actors go before they shoot a movie! So I approached some of them about this and surprisingly many said 'Yes'. I ask about the script... how could it be ready? She smiles with a twinkle in her eye, 'The script had been ready, trust me!' So you had this all planned out, I ask? She smiles even more enigmatically, 'Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies!'
l-r: Chidinma Uzodike (Emem's PA) Emem Isong and Davies Bassey (Official Still photographer) on location I move on to Ini Edo who is also producing and she is more than willing to oblige me. 'This is a production of massive proportions. My colleagues and I decided to do this movie after much deliberation' she says. 'I am, mind you, not just acting but also executive producing and producing with Emem, my big sister. And what's the experience like? She replies; 'Awesome! I have never had so much fun in all my life! I press her for more gist but she says; 'All in due course! Hmm... Weekend Getway is set for release sometime next year. Can't wait! Enjoy some lovely pix!
