“What lies beneath all the glitz and glamour?,” Netflix wrote.
The original version of the movie starred several Nollywood heavyweights including Liz Benson, Ngozi Ezeonu, Eucharia Anuobi, Pat Attah, Ernest Obi, and Zack Orji, among others.
‘Glamour Girls’ follows the story of four independent single women who embarked on questionable jobs within Nigeria’s traditionally patriarchal society.
TheCable Lifestyle had last year reported the film’s premiere in Nigerian cinemas.
Charles Okpaleke, the chief executive officer (CEO) and co-founder of Play Networks, which produced the film, had spoken about the essence of ‘Glamour Girls’ remake.
“A story that would involve 3 generations of actresses. I’m going all out on this one!,” he wrote on Instagram.
