<h2>December 2024 promises to be exciting, with the impending release of star-studded Nollywood movies in the cinemas.</h2>

In December 2016, The Wedding Party was released. It went on to become the highest grossing box office hit for four years until Funke Akindele's Omo Ghetto: The Saga overtook it in 2020.

But the blockbuster movie was able to successfully usher in a new era of Nollywood: December star-studded movies.

It has now become normal for Nigerians to anticipate the release of major titles in the cinemas as each year gradually comes to an end. And 2024 is no exception.

In typical Nollywood fashion of recent, filmmakers and industry stakeholders have rolled out a series of promotional materials unmissable on social media ahead of the big release in December.

As such, these are the titles we're anticipating eagerly.

Funke Akindele's 2008 hit movie Jenifa has become a franchise. In 2011, the actress and filmmaker reprised her role as Jenifa in the comedy film, The Return of Jenifa. In 2015, she returned with Jenifa's Diary as a television series produced under her production company, Scene One Productions. While the series became a household name, Akindele continued to produce and release other projects.

However, it appears that the award-winning thespian is set to go down memory lane with the impending release of her newest project in December, Everybody Loves Jenifa. The forthcoming flick is expected to serve the audience with thrilling nostalgia and build upon the narrative from the previous offerings under the franchise.

While we are yet to get an official trailer, some of the cast expected to grace the big screen in the movie include Nancy Isime, Stan Nze, Falz, Lateef Adedimeji, Jackie Appiah, Destiny Etiko, Layi Wasabi, and Omowunmi Dada.

The movie will be showing in the cinemas from December 13, 2024.
