Anthill Studios founder and film director Niyi Akinmolayanhas announced that EbonyLife Film’s latest Netflix project, ‘Chief Daddy 2’ is officially a wrap.
Akinmolayan, who directed the first movie, announced the end of the production, on his Instagram, describing it as his ‘most beautiful film yet.
“It’s a Wrap on #chiefdaddy2. I particularly love this one because some of the people I worked with on the first film took on way bigger roles on the second one… Chief Daddy 2 is my most beautiful film yet and I can’t wait for you all to see it exclusively on Netflix,” Akinmolayan wrote.
Shot in Lagos and Dubai, the sequel co-produced by Ted Abudu and Isioma Osaje, promises more adventures from the Beecroft family.
