One of the surprising things that happened this June was Netflix picking up Kingsley Ogoro’s Osuofia in London, the classic comedy that captured audiences back in 2004, and proved pivotal for Nkem Owoh’s acting career. The internet was overjoyed. Acquiring older Nollywood titles churned around the early ’00’s hasn’t been that common with the streamer, often going for newer releases.

Wishful thinking but Osuofia in London could be an entry point for movies before the cinema revolution. While we still wait for Kemi Adetiba’s King of Boys sequel to arrive on Netflix this year, here are the movies the streamer has in store this July.

Rattlesnake: The Ahanna Story – July 2

This reboot of Amaka Igwe’s 1995 classic thriller wears a modern gloss under the helm of director Ramsey Nouah.
