This has certainly been a year of innovation and growth for Nollywood.

Oprah, the most influential woman on television mentioned Genevieve Nnaji on her show as one of the 20 most popular people in the world, Stephanie Okereke directed and produced a film ‘Through the Glass’, racking in millions at the box office.

Emem Isong’s ‘Guilty Pleasures’ continues to thrill and pull crowds of people to the cinemas to mention a few.

It seems Nollywood is not quite done with surprises… reports just reaching us tell us that sexy screen siren, Ini Edo has joined the ranks as the latest producer in town!

She has just co-produced and starred in a film, ‘Memories of my Heart’ which is set to hit our screens soon. www.nigeriafilms.com caught up with the pretty actress and she confirmed the story. ‘Yes, I have just co-produced a film with my good friend and big sister, Emem Isong.

It stars Ramsey, Desmond Elliot, Uche Jombo, Mona Lisa Chinda, Nse Ikpe-Etim and myself. It’s a romantic comedy and I’m sure people will like it’.

Hmm…very star-studded I see.. so who are the love interests in the movie? Hear her;

< >

‘I think I’ll be giving away the story if I answered that, so I wouldn’t like to say that for now, but what I will say is that it’s a love story and I had a lot of fun shooting it and working with my colleagues both as an actress and as an executive producer’.

So, when should we expect to see this frothy confection of a movie that is already giving me toothache! (it sounds so sweet!)

‘Before the end of the 1st quarter of next year’ she quipped.

Ha! Will it be possible for viewers to wait that long?

She smiles and decides to soothe my restive soul with some lovely location shots…

Oscar [25-12-2009 09:21]   Look, Owe, wake-up. Where do you live? Even if you live in a backward village in Europe, you have heard of Oprah. She is a king-maker. If she has noticed Genevieve all Nigerians should be happy.. Owe are you a film-maker? If you are a professional why not produce your own. Who are film-maker in Hollywood? Are they not Actors Actresses? You are envious. Get over it. We should thank those few Nigerians who are putting our name in the world map. you stupid.Every person loves Nigerian movie because is organic, simple and touches where other films do not reach. Non-Nigerians introduced me to Nigerian films years ago. Nigerian movies are not watched by only Nigerians here in London. OWE, reply to my comments so that I can educate you. Wake up from your slumber. You are still thinking as if we are in the 70s. You do not put others down with silly comments. Rather, you go out there and produce yours improving on those flaws you picked. eric daasebre boateng [24-12-2009 15:04]   Ini u like the moon @ its full size Jaborn [18-12-2009 15:38]   Uche jumbo i like the way you act,especially the role you fit in (romantic),But i just wanna ask a simple QUESTION,Will you ever get married,How will your hobby feel when he watches you in scene.
