It will be released in all Nigerian cinemas on Friday, the 3rd of October 2014, with special advance screenings from Wednesday October 1, 2014. This masterpiece, which was directed by Kunle Afolayan, was reportedly made with over N200million and was shot in Lagos and Ondo States for over forty days, after four months on pre-production. The cast of the movie delivered great acting dexterity; veteran actor Sadiq Daba (hit 80’s TV drama series Cockrow At Dawn), Kehinde Bankole, David Bailie, Nick Rhys, Fabian Adeoye Lojede, Kanayo O. Kanayo, Bimbo Manuel, Kunle Afolayan, Femi Adebayo, Demola Adedoyin, Kayode Olaiya, and Deola Sagoe. October 1, a psychological thriller, unveils the story of Danladi Waziri (Sadiq Daba), a police officer from the North who is posted to the remote town of Akote, to investigate a series of female murder cases in the community and have the mystery solved before the Nigerian flag is raised on October 1, Nigeria’s Independence Day. ADVERTISEMENT The movie has been consensually dubbed by movie echelons, pundits and critics to record outstanding box office figures when released in Nigerian cinemas,stemming from its high technical quality output. A grand premiere has been slated for Sunday September 28th, 2014 at theEko Hotel and Suites, Lagos. October 1 received production sponsorship from the Lagos state Government, Toyota, Elizade Motors and Sovereign Trust Insurance. According to Mr Kene Mkparu, the MD of FilmOne distribution, “Kunle Afolayan has not faltered in any of his movie productions since he made his directorial debut in 2007. He raises the bar with every movie he produces; Irapada, The Figurine, Phone Swap and now October 1. His filmmaking skills are truly exceptional and we are indeed proud to be the distributor of this outstanding work”. Mr Afolayan believes strongly that there is so much potential for this kind of film and that people will start believing in indigenous film projects after watching October 1. He said, “One thing is crystal clear, Nigerians and non-Nigerian alike are waiting enthusiastically for the release of October 1 and will swarm the cinemas to watch the movie that is poised to leave a long lasting positive impression on all who see it.” The producer and distributor of October 1 urged all Nigerians and lovers of Nigeria to come out in large numbers to experience this cinematic showpiece. source 18 Likes |

Kunle Afolayan is a force to reckon with in the Nigerian movie industry,his movies "the figurine" and "phone swap" can testify to that. they kept me glued to my seat from beginning to end. I've seen the trailer of this movie and it seems very interesting. I cant wait to see this movie 8 Likes |

I Read the synopsis. I wonder why they have to bloat the cost of production to 200million as if that's what will make the movie interesting. Abi na Jack Baur of 24 or Sean Connery 007 dem bring to play the Police Officer from North. Even if the pay all the lead characters that featured in this movie 1m each I still can't see how the movie go absorb 200million. There are lots of low budget movies that remain very captivating and scintillating. I don't see a Nigerian film producer (Marketer/investor) sinking 200million in any movie to end up selling the movie 150naira per CD even if the sponsor na Dangote, the producer go just pocket the money come enter church for "Testimony Time" 2 Likes |

This guy is a force to be reckoned with. Have never intentionally watch a nigerian film but for me to seat and watch phone swap and figurine on more than two occasions says a lot. Other nollywood guys should seat and be innovative with their storytelling and filming beyond this; Olujacob being the king and van vivker being the son who eventually fell in love with Ini edo which in turns caused the king fury. Spits on film and walk away. |
