Actress Mosun Filani-Oduoye fully returns to Nollywood with her first Cinema movie featuring A-List actors

Nollywood actress, Mosun Filani-Oduoye may have put her ambition to fully manifest as a politician’s wife in the back burner and instead, returned to the movie industry which brought her to the limelight.

The actress, who took a long break about a decade ago, took to her Instagram account this morning to reveal she just concluded shooting a new movie entitled Different Strokes. She revealed the movie will be shown in cinema worldwide.

Recall, Mosun quit acting almost immediately after she married Kayode Oduoye, a politician and son of late Assistant Inspector-General of Police, Simeon Oduoye. As the wife of a politician, she was required to project a certain lifestyle and acting wasn’t part of it.

More so, as her husband’s plan to represent Ifelodun, Boripe and Odun-Otin Federal Constituency of Osun State in the House of Representatives was already in motion in 2015. Besides, the realisation that she might need to relocate to Abuja with her husband put paid to any ambition she was nursing in respect of her acting career.

Unfortunately, Mosun’s husband lost at the polls. Not long afterwards, Sir Kay as he is fondly called, decided to test the waters again by signifying his interest to govern Osun State in 2018 on the platform of Peoples Democratic Party. This time, Mosun already imagined herself as the first lady of the state and was preparing to play that role. Once again, her dream did not come true. So she decided to concentrate on her beauty business and caring for her family.

Now, not only has Mosun returned to Nollywood, she is working on her first film as a producer and appears to spare no cost to ensure that it has a talented cast. She is featuring Shaffy Bello, Blessing Jessica Obasi, Jim lyke, Lillian Esoro, KieKie and Mercy Johnson in the movie.
