It was a hunger game of fashion as guests pulled out all the cards to display the right amount of glamour, and mystery for the themed premiere with a twist of casino royale.

Elegant couture dresses, tuxedos, masks and trendsetting beauty looks were the major highlights of the night.

From Dakore Egbuson-Akande who nailed the theme in a white tuxedo and top hat by Mai Atafo to Ini Dima Okojie who appeared in an alluring white long-tailed dress by Fablane, to Timini Egbuson’s avant-garde face mask, had fans debating on social media on what their favourite look of the night was.

“The Set-Up Film” is definitely a hit. It left the audience at the edge of their seats and took everyone on a journey of emotions! From the opening scene, the director leaves no room for boredom. When a film starts out strong, one would think that it fizzles out.

The Set Up doesn’t. With The Set Up Film, the more you think you know; the more you realize you don’t as the plot unfolds.

The film is a suspense-filled, action-packed, deliciously wicked movie. Like nothing you've ever seen in the history of Nollywood cinemas.

Guests at the grand premiere included Mo Abudu, Sola Sobawole, Lala Akindoju, Linda Ejiofor-Suleiman, Ik Osakioduwa and Banky W came out to support Adesua Etomi-Wellington who played the lead character, Kehinde Bankole, Joke Silva and Jim Iyke. The Set-Up comes out 9th of August 2019 in cinemas nationwide.

The Set-Up is a story of grit, deceit, and survival. In it, Chike (Adesua Etomi Wellington), a young drug smuggler gets more than she bargains for and is drawn into a web of deceit when she is hired by a socialite (Jim Iyke) to assist with his scheme to marry a wealthy heiress (Dakore Egbuson Akande).

Out in cinemas nationwide on the 9th of August.
