Nollywood actress and filmmaker Wumi Toriola is set to release a new movie titled Almost Official, a romantic drama built around the complicated stage between being single and being officially committed to someone.
The movie is scheduled to premiere on October 8 on Wumi Toriola Prime, with Toriola serving as the producer.
Announcing the project, the actress described the movie as a blend of love, chaos and uncertainty, hinting at a storyline that explores the complications that can arise when two people are romantically involved but have not formally defined their relationship.
A Story About An Undefined Relationship
Almost Official takes its title from the familiar relationship stage where two people appear to be together but have yet to make their commitment official.
Toriola teased the movie with a playful description of the situation, asking viewers to imagine the stage where someone is “not exactly single” but still does not have an official relationship status.
According to the filmmaker, the team turned that experience into a full movie, combining romance and drama to explore what happens when feelings become stronger while the relationship remains undefined.
“It’s giving LOVE. It’s giving CHAOS. It’s giving… ALMOST OFFICIAL,” she wrote while announcing the project.
The description suggests that the movie will focus on the emotional uncertainty that can accompany relationships without clear labels.
Romance, Drama And Difficult Choices
Toriola also encouraged viewers to come for the romance but remain for the drama, suggesting that Almost Official will go beyond the lighter side of an emerging relationship.
The filmmaker asked audiences to prepare to pick a side, pointing to possible disagreements and emotional moments among the characters.
The combination of romance and chaos forms part of the movie’s appeal, particularly for viewers who can relate to situations where people are emotionally connected but have not clearly defined what they are to each other.
By placing this relationship stage at the centre of the story, Almost Official promises to explore the uncertainty that can arise when expectations, emotions and commitment do not necessarily move at the same pace.
Wumi Toriola Leads The Project
Toriola is not only behind the movie as its producer but is also responsible for bringing the project to her own platform, Wumi Toriola Prime.
The actress has continued to expand her work beyond acting, taking on production responsibilities and developing projects for audiences through digital platforms.
For Almost Official, she is credited as the producer, while the project is powered by Wumi Toriola Prime and managed by Frameshot.
The movie is directed by Vich Vitalis, who handles the direction of the romantic drama.
Cast And Production Team
The project features Emmanuel Nse, Shammugah, Stefania Bassey and Wumi Toriola.
The cast is expected to bring the movie’s romantic and dramatic elements to life as the characters navigate the complications surrounding an undefined relationship.
With the storyline centred on love, uncertainty and drama, the production brings together a cast and creative team working on a story about the space between casual involvement and official commitment.
‘Almost Official’ Arrives October 8
Almost Official will be available from October 8 on Wumi Toriola Prime.
The announcement has already positioned the movie as a romantic drama designed to mix humour, emotions and relationship tension.
While the title focuses on the idea of being almost official, the filmmaker’s teaser also points towards a story where love may not be as straightforward as it appears.
As viewers prepare for the premiere, Toriola has encouraged them to watch the movie, enjoy the romance and drama, and ultimately decide which side they support.
With its focus on the often-complicated stage of relationships before commitment becomes official, Almost Official is set to bring a familiar relationship experience to the screen through romance and drama.
