Genevieve Becomes First Nollywood Billionaire As Netflix Buys Lionheart For$3.8m by praizblog: 5:22pm On Jan 10, 2019
The actress has made history as the first person to ever become a Billionaire in the Nigerian movie industry.

According to a source close to the actress and her business partner, Netflix paid her a whopping $3.8Million to buy over the movie that was shot in Enugu Nigeria.

If you convert that to Nigerian Naira, it is a whopping N1,051,297,231.56.

This is a feat most of her colleagues have never achieved.

Congratulations to her.

Wow a big congrats to her, she did wonderfully well and I know this is just the beginning for her. she will surely break the ice and prosper.

I dont watch much of Nigerian movies because of the cheapness, trashness and shallowness with poor plots but this one is different, its a must watch. this is just the beginning for Nollywood.

Everybody in the industry should start praying for her movie to be financially rewarding to Netflix.

It could mark a beginning of real financial breakthrough for other producers , directors ,actors and other stakeholders when things like this becomes the norm.

Even govt will earn more taxes.

It's actually relatively cheap for 3.5.

That is the average amount a single A list actor is paid for acting in a movie.

You are not Netflix. And Genevieve is not a green horn.

And besides, 3.5 is for the whole movie, not for a single actor. It's cheap.

if you hear the budget of even some rubbish Hollywood movies that went no where u would know that 3.5million dollars is cheap but based on Africa and Nigerias exchange rate it's something big.

3.5 millions dollars is cheap? Do you know how our foreign reserve would rise if it was added? If not for my changed attitude, I go curse Jonathan again and again

3.5 is nothing, bro.

Not when you earn billions of dollars like Netflix.
