Like Robert De Niro, Morgan Freeman, Michael Douglas and Kevin Kline in the 2013 American comedy, Las Vegas, Nollywood’s Richard Mofe-Damijo (RMD), Zack Orji and Victor Olaotan have teamed up for a film about senior citizens behaving badly.
Produced by Opa Williams, The Three Wise Men tells the story of three 60-something-year-olds who set out on an adventure to spend their retirement like teenagers.
After collecting N35million gratuity each, the three old-timers, led by Irikefe (RMD), decide to see the world differently.
From tracking girls on social media to clubbing, the men are on the loose in what could be their last hurrah.
RMD’s character spots tattoos, Zack Orji’s sag his jeans while that of Victor Olaotan tries to “toast” a young woman for the first time after 40 years of marriage.
The hilarious drama about reinvention and quest for eternal youth was directed by directed by Patience Oghre Imobhio.
Funded by Bank of Industry (BOI) under its Nollyfund project, the film also stars Tina Mba and Ebele Okaro, among others.
The Three Wise Men premieres at the cinema on October 28.
