Genevieve Nnaji Prepares To Star Alongside Top British Actors In New Drama
Nollywood Diva, Genevieve Nnaji, is starring in the British drama “Farming” alongside Kate Beckinsale, Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Damson Idris.
The film, which is being shot in the U.K. and Nigeria, started production in August and is being directed by Nigerian-British writer and director, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje.
The film is based on Adewale’s autobiographical story.
The script was developed at the Sundance Film Institute and chronicles his own coming-of-age story growing up fostered by a white working-class family in the U.K.
In the film, the lead character is sent to the U.K. by his parents in hopes of achieving a better life. Instead, he becomes the feared leader of a white skinhead gang in 1980s England. When all seems lost and he spirals into self-destruction, a benevolent teacher (played by Mbatha-Raw) offers him one last chance at redemption.
Genevieve has shared a few photos of herself on set.
