LNollywood actress Omotola Jolade-Ekeinde, popularly known as Omosexy, is gearing up to celebrate three decades of excellence in the entertainment industry in grand style.

Now based in the United States, the screen icon is working on a new milestone: shooting her first movie as a filmmaker.

Though she has kept the title of the project under wraps, the actress has shared her excitement about the journey, hinting at a grand celebration of her legacy.

Speaking about her foray into filmmaking, Omotola expressed particular enthusiasm for the editing process, a phase she described as one of her favourites.

“Editing has been one of my favourite segments of the journey into filmmaking,” she said.

Her passion for the craft has been evident throughout her illustrious career, and this new endeavour underscores her determination to explore uncharted territories in the industry.

The movie project is set to mark the next phase of Omotola’s remarkable career.

By stepping into the director’s chair, Omotola signals her readiness to leave an even greater impact on the global film scene.

While fans eagerly await more details about the movie, Omotola assured them that it’s a project close to her heart.

“This is just the beginning,” she said, referring to her journey to 30 years on stage.

Omotola’s move to the United States has not slowed her down.

Instead, it has opened new opportunities for the actress, who continues to expand her creative horizons.

The actress has previously spoken about her desire to blend her Nollywood roots with Hollywood techniques, and this project could serve as a perfect fusion of both worlds.

As one of Nollywood’s most respected figures, Omotola’s contributions to the growth of the industry are undeniable.

The upcoming movie is expected to reflect her depth as both a storyteller and a trailblazer.
