The premiere date for Netflix’s latest EbonyLife studios partnership, ‘Blood Sisters,’ has been set.
On May 5, 2022, the script for a four-part original series directed by Biyi Bandele (‘Half of a Yellow Sun’) and Kenneth Gyang (‘Oloture’) will be released worldwide.
Temidayo Makanjuola’s series, which stars Ini Dima-Okojie and Nancy Isime as the starring females, follows two friends, Sarah (Dima-Okojie) and Kemi (Isime) (Isime). Kola, Sarah’s dream man, has proposed to her (Deyemi Okanlawon).
The anticipated series, written by Craig Freimond and Zelipa Zulu, was shot in Lagos in September 2021 and is the latest collaboration after the previous year’s ‘Castle & Castle’ and ‘Chief Daddy’ sequel.
Mo Abudu, CEO of EbonyLife Studios, discusses the necessity of sharing the ‘Blood Sisters’ story.

It was also a particularly unique and intense experience as we shot during the pandemic, but we remained committed to the vision we share with Netflix – to tell authentic and exciting African stories with superb production values.”
Ramsey Nouah, Kate Henshaw, Uche Jombo, Segun Arinze, and Joke Silva star in the thriller, which also features screen favorites Wale Ojo, Gabriel Afolayan, Kehinde Bankole, Daniel Etim Effiong, Keppy Ekpenyong-Bassey, Maurice Sam, Ibrahim Suleiman, Toke Makinwa, and Okey Uzoeshi.
