In the highly anticipated Thy Will Be Done, a film by multiple award-winning director Obi Emelonye, set to hit cinemas across Nigeria from 15 May, Ramsey Nouah and Mercy Johnson teamed up to render an unforgettable, heart endearing delivery as a married couple in the new flick.
They are joined by Mary Njoku, to set off a thrilling chain reaction in this romantic drama.
The film revolves around Pius, a happily married pastor in charge of a large church. His first wife who died and was buried seven years ago suddenly shows up, and his world is thrown into turmoil. His present wife leaves nothing to chance in ensuring the intruder remains permanently out of his life.
He has to make a tough decision as to which wife will remain in his home, after all, he was legally married to both; between old sins and new loyalties, taking firm action and surrendering to God’s will.
Weakened by guilt and overwhelmed by sensational revelations, nothing would have prepared Pius for how rapidly things would descend into chaos…for hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
Emelonye is renowned for directing Box Office hits such as The Mirror Boy, Last Flight To Abuja, and Onye Ozi. His latest effort is in partnership with FilmOne Distribution and Rok Studios.
Jason Njoku of Rok Studios said: “This is a huge cinema event for Nigeria and we think that moviegoers will be totally enthralled by the incredible story, the quality of production and the incredible performances from Nollywood’s finest. Rok Studios has huge ambitions in terms of re-energising Nollywood and producing international-standard cinema from Nigeria. Thy Will Be Done, for us, is the blueprint, the gold standard, if you will, in terms of quality and awesome storytelling that we hope will now define Nollywood.”
