LIBERIAN, NIGERIAN STARS IN BIG MOVIE

Image Hosting by PictureTrail.comAfter many years of setback, Liberian stars are gradually getting back in the limelight. It was after the heat of the first Taylor’s 1990 war, when Leroy Lawson starred in a Movie based in Nigeria, alongside Nollywood’s star actor Zack Oge.

Ever since, Nigerian actors haven’t featured in any movie alongside that of Liberia, until recently, when Nigeria born Thomson Isaac, lead a group of Liberian actress- Evelyn Fairley, Kiddie actress Aaliyah Oyenekeh, amongst others- in a power packed movie- “Bloodied Departure- featuring Nigerian superstars Patience Ozukwo, amongst others.

The movie which was partly shut in Liberia and Nigeria is based on a demonic girl (Aaliyah Oyenekeh) who was send by the Queen of the coast (Evelyn Fairley of Liberia) to cause animosity among a twin whose sister was critically in the hospital and needed the donation of her blood to survive

The movie starred Thomson Isaac as a Pastor whom through his prayer, the power of the Demonic girl, the Queen of the coast and their cohort was destroyed, thus restoring peace and happiness in the household of Patience Uzokwor, the mother of the twin.

Speaking to Thomson Isaac recently, after the premier of the movie in Liberia, he told our entertainment publisher (J. Ralph Lincoln) that “BLOODIED DEPARTURE” was just a test in order to see how successful it will be for the Liberian movie stars and that of Nigeria to be collaborating on a movie.

Though he graded it as a test, but the movie is serous selling in Nigeria, Liberia and the rest of the English speaking countries of West Africa.

“Now that the movie is selling, what’s next?” Our entertainment Publisher asked Thomson Isaac.

“Well, that shows that the people enjoy the collaboration. To answer your question, we just got a call from Nigeria for another project and believe me from there, lots of offers will be coming. So, that should prove to the audience that Liberian actors are advancing. I believe by the end of this year, Africa will become a global village where we can act together regardless of the country you’re from, which industry, etc,” he responded.
