Super Eagles player, Alex Iwobi to star in Nollywood flick

Super Eagles player, Alexander Iwobi is reportedly starring in a yet to be released Nollywood movie.

The Arsenal forward, purportedly took acting classes to properly prepare for his role in the movie. While many of his football fans are concerned that the movie role may affect his game during the season, insider sources claim that the filming for the movie rounded up weeks ago and the project is in the final stages of post-production.

There are speculations that Iwobi will be playing the role of a heroic character. Though Iwobi is yet to make it official, sources say he had a great time starring in the movie.

The insider said: “Iwobi is a very simple guy. He wanted to work on the project away from the public eye so he would have enough time to focus on making his major acting debut a great one. He likes to dedicate himself wholly to any project he does and this was no different”.

This would be Iwobi’s very first acting role in a major production.
