Actor-turned-filmmaker Deyemi Okanlawon has revealed why he did not feature his friend Kunle Remi in his latest film All’s Fair in Love.
The movie star explained his reason in an interview with the women of Your View breakfast show on TVC on Tuesday.
Deyemi said Kunle whom he shares a close friendship online and off social media did not make the cast because he was busy planning his wedding at the time.
“Kunle couldn’t make it to this film, we tried, we worked through schedules, he was planning his whole wedding and we couldn’t loud it then,” he said.
The film, produced by Deyemi, will be released in the cinema on February 14.
It features Deyemi, Lateef Adedimeji, Timini Egbuson, Juliet Ibrahim, Beauty Tukura, Venita Akpofure, Kunle Bamtefa, Gbubemi Ejeye, Kenzy Udosen, Oprah Okereke and Timilehin Ojeola.
