Big Brother Naija star Nengi will be making her Nollywood debut in the movie Rattlesnake: The Ahanna Story.

The entrepreneur from Bayelsa state recently took to her Twitter page to share a thriller of the project wherein she featured.

She wrote: ''PlayNetworkStudios presents Rattlesnake: the Ahanna Story, directed by Ramsey Nouah In cinemas nationwide November 13th, 2020.''

Charles Okpaleke, the chief executive officer (CEO) of Play Network, also took to his Instagram page to comment on the forthcoming movie, enjoining the public to anticipate its release.

“This time, we’re doing it the Play Lifestyle way. Save the dates and location. In cinemas November 13th,” he wrote.

It was learnt that she recently signed a talent management deal with Play Network, with Charles welcoming her on board earlier this month.

Nengi, whose real name is Rebecca Hampson, was one of the most-talked-about housemates while the reality show lasted over her friendship with Ozoemena ‘Ozo’ Chukwu.

The forthcoming project is a sequel to the original version of ‘Rattle Snake’, a Nollywood classic, released in 1995.

It follows the story of Ahanna, a young man who gets lured into a life of crime after the death of his father.

It features several movie stars including Osas Ighodaro, a Nigerian-American actress, who will be playing the lead role.

The development comes weeks after Brighto, a fellow reality TV star, also lauded his first movie role.
