Ghanaian actress Nadia Buari recently shared her motivation for moving into movie production, citing a desire for more diverse roles. In an interview on The Afternoon Show on Wednesday, October 23, she explained, “I got into movie producing because I felt I wasn’t challenged enough. I felt the scripts that I was receiving and the roles that I played were not challenging enough.”

Nadia, who describes herself as “a thriller and horror freak,” admitted she grew frustrated with the repetitive “lover girl” roles. “Every time I got a script it was either a lover girl or I was after somebody’s boyfriend, and I just got tired of that,” she said. “I had too many stories and I felt like if I ventured into producing my own movies, I could play the character I have always wanted to play.”

Nadia has already produced four films and is back on screen after a brief hiatus with Forever in a Night, produced by John N. Okwugo and directed by Jameel Buari. The film will premiere on November 9, 2024, at Accra Mall and West Hills Mall.
