Ace filmmaker, Lancelot Imasuen, confessed that shooting his latest movie, ‘Gbege,’ drained him financially and got him hospitalised for three days.
‘Gbege’ featured the likes of Mercy Aigbe, Ini Edo, Charles Inojie, Broda Shaggi, Zubby Michael, and others. The movie premiered on Wednesday, September 28, 2022, at the Blue Pictures Cinemas, Onikan, Lagos.
Speaking with our source in an interview, Imasuen said, “I have been very scared about this project. I am grateful to God that this project is getting this kind of reaction. I have never seen this kind of excitement from a movie premiere as a filmmaker; to God be the glory.”
On the challenges he faced while shooting the movie, the filmmaker said, “I spent a lot of money making ‘Gbege’. It drained me. When I was filming, I fell ill and I was hospitalised; I spent three nights in the hospital. It was stressful and it took quite a bit of time. We finished shooting two years ago and post production took this long; I am still not satisfied but let’s just allow it to go, hoping to do better next time. I am happy about the reaction it has got so far.”
In attendance at the movie showcase were Charles Inojie, Chinedu Ikedieze, Nosa Rex, Zeb Ejiro and Tade Ogidan. The movie was officially released to the cinemas on October 7, 2022.
