Nollywood is about to experience the magic that comes with Christmas this month, as talented actress, producer and director, Ufuoma McDermott, is set to storm the cinema with her latest movie, Christmas is Coming.

With Christmas just a few weeks away, this movie plans to put viewers right in the mood for the season.

It follows the story of a slobby tomboy (Ufuoma), who has a string of ill-luck after being transformed to a “Lady” by her mischievous flat mates (Mary Lazarus, Izzie Otaigbe) just a few days to Christmas.

She unintentionally falls in love quickly and has to deal with its immediate consequences, which are definitely worth the anticipation, as it would no doubt thrill and wow viewers.

Written, produced and directed by Ufuoma, the romantic comedy stars talented and popular actors, such as Ufuoma herself, Sola Sobowale, Chioma Akpotha, Zack Orji, Deyemi Okanlanwon, Mary Lazarus, Gregory Ojefua, Michael Okon, Izzie Otaigbe, Odenike Odetola, and more.

Ufuoma, who over the years, have been consistent on screens, having featured in box office hit series, such as Wives on Strike, Okafor’s Law and popular hit series, This things called marriage, remains one of the most regular faces both on television and cinema scene.

She not only possesses the talent, but also the creativity that many struggle with. Speaking on what to expect from Christmas is Coming, Ufuoma said:

“This is not your regular movie. I know this might sound like a cliché, but truth is, this is something you have never seen before.

“Working with great actors, like the ones in this movie, I have been made to realise that with the right people and right ideas, magic can be made in the most unexpected way.

“Christmas is Coming is most certainly magical and I can’t wait to share it with the world. Prepare to be wowed, literally.”

The movie hits cinemas nationwide on November 24th.
