The rights to the movie have been purchased by the duo, and production is set to kick off in 2016.
Speaking on the project, Ramsey says, “There is no way you will mention Nollywood
without talking about Living in Bondage. It was the kick-starter for the
industry I work in today. Its ability to appeal to everyone irrespective of
their religious, cultural and social beliefs made it a huge success. It
addressed issues that we couldn't talk about then. Its beauty lies in the
language used which is understood by a certain part of the country, yet was
watched by many. So why not bring back this great movie in our contemporary
world."
LIB
is a delight any day. People will still talk about the way Kenneth Okonkwokilled his wife for money
rituals and how he was tormented. Don't forget the likes of Kanayo O. Kanayo and Bob Manuel Udokwu who intrigued us with
their roles. All these made the movie a great hit and we are sure that the
sequel will do better."
Charles is also super-excited about the
movie. "It's not often that we visit
our roots and bring our past back to life. Living in Bondage may have its flaws
then due to the fact that the industry was still growing. However, bringing those characters back to our present
situation will be really interesting and I'm sure it will spark public
discourse that will perhaps engineer growth and development in the industry."
