Actress Genevieve Nnaji Opens Up On Why She Has Not Been Lately Seen On Movies


Award winning iconic actress and mother of one who, Genevieve Nnaji whose face has been rare on the movie scene for a while now, in a recent interview with Punch explains why she hasn't been featuring in new movies these days. Read excerpt below...

“I guess I haven’t found the right script yet. Creativity and depth are the qualities that I look out for in a script. In the beginning, the movie industry emphasized quantity but things are changing and there is an improvement in trend. I am among the people who advocate for the improvement of the industry. So said, I am constantly watching out for the kind of stories I take part in.

“I am in support of movies that show a great deal of professionalism and creativity. Having practiced my art in international and professionally produced stories like ‘Ije’; ‘Mirror boy;’ and ‘Tango with me’, I don’t think I can return to the blandness and mediocrity that characterized Nollywood in the past. I have respected myself as an artiste. I think the success stems from the fact that I have given acting my all.” she said

Speaking on her career, she said:
“I don’t see myself as a special person beyond the fact that God has blessed me with a talent that is working for me and I am forever thankful to Him”.
