It has been a hot minute, technically nearly a year since cinemas saw a healthy number of titles scheduled for release no thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic that saw the crippling of the film industry and near death of cinema even from a global standpoint.
Hopefully, Funke Akindele and JJC Skillz' recent record shattering box office numbers has something to do with the renewal of faith in this form of distribution which explains the latest surge in titles slated for release in the coming month.
Here is a list of all the Nigerian titles set for theatrical release in March:
