Excitement as Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham Star in Epic Movie ‘House of Ga’a’. Nollywood powerhouses Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham have joined forces in Netflix’s monumental film, ‘House of Ga’a’, generating immense anticipation and buzz among fans. The movie, directed and produced by Bolanle Austen-Peters, delves into the historical biopic of Bashorun Ga’a, a formidable Prime Minister/kingmaker of the 18th century, who wielded immense power surpassing even the monarchs he crowned. Alongside Akindele and Abraham, the star-studded cast includes Femi Branch, Mike Afolarin, Ibrahim Chatta, Dele Odule, Bimbo Manuel, Lateef Adedimeji, Femi Adebayo, Gabriel Afolayan, and many more.
The unveiling of ‘House of Ga’a’ occurred during an International Women’s Day event organized by Netflix, celebrating the contributions of female filmmakers, actors, and members of the Nigerian film community.
Scheduled for release before the end of 2024, the movie has left fans eagerly awaiting its premiere.
The collaboration between Akindele and Abraham marks a significant moment in Nollywood, as both actresses, who are also producers, vie for supremacy in the industry with their respective projects.
The rivalry between the two became apparent with the release of their previous films, ‘Ijakumo’ by Abraham and ‘Battle on the Buka Street’ by Akindele.
Despite past tensions, signs of reconciliation emerged in 2023 when Akindele extended warm birthday wishes to Abraham, signaling a possible end to their feud.
Notably, Akindele’s ‘A Tribe Called Judah’ raked in N1.4 billion, while Abraham’s ‘Malaika’ earned N302 million, solidifying their positions as box office heavyweights.
As anticipation builds for ‘House of Ga’a’, fans flooded social media with praises for the dynamic duo, heralding a new era of collaboration and excellence in Nigerian cinema.
