The event, which took place at Filmhouse Lekki IMAX, saw numerous actors and actresses in attendance, including cinema exhibitors, producers, directors, writers, influencers, and top industry figures.
The annual event is a platform for actors and actresses to showcase upcoming movies, and this year's edition did not disappoint.
The evening was filled with laughter, excitement, and a sense of community among the actors and actresses in attendance hosted by the CEO of FilmOne, Kene Okwuosa

One of the highlights of the evening was a short performance by Iyabo Ojo for her new movie, Labake Olododo. However, the presentation took an unexpected turn when her wig fell off, leaving the audience in stitches. Despite the mishap, she took it in stride and continued the presentation.
Other notable attendees at the event included Muyiwa Ademola, Toyin Aimaku-Ajewole, Jide Kene, Shawn Faqua, Bukky Wright, and the Something About the Briggs cast, who all showcased their latest movie projects.
