The trailer for 'Glamour Girls' teases the plot of the anticipated remake of the 1994 Chika Onukwufor directed classic.
Fans of early Nollywood would recall that the film explored socially conscious themes through the story which follows a young woman's quest for financial liberation. She soon finds herself thrust into a world of prostitution and must find a way to remain afloat.
Netflix's trailer hints that the remake takes a huge chunk of the original film's plot as it centers on a character, played by Sharon Ooja, who turns to a pimp ( Nse Ikpe-Etim) for survival.
The remake also stars Toke Makinwa, Femi Branch, Uzor Arukwe, Taymesan Emmanuel with Ghanaian stars Joselyn Dumas and James Gardiner. This will, interestingly, be the first time the streamer is working with Ghanaian actors on a Nollywood project.
'Glamour Girls' film is produced by Abimbola Craig and directed by 'Smart Money Woman' Director Bunmi Ajakaiye. Play Network Studio unveiled the 'Skinny Girl In Transit' star last year ahead of plans for the now aborted theatrical release.
The remake will premiere on the streamer on June 24, 2022.
