In an interview with Newsmen, the actress disclosed that she selected Odunlade Adekola based on her observation of his talent after witnessing several of his films.
According to her:
“I am a fan of Nollywood, so in the last year and a half, Nollywood has flooded the United States through Netflix and other streaming platforms and I have watched King of Boys, Jagun Jagun and other titles and I have watched Odunlade, his range of abilities and what he can do and to me, he possessed what is needed for the character of Oba Fagbemi in the coming film and that was why I chose him,”
