‘Tempting Fate’ hits cinemas

The highly anticipated and a great addition to the family entertainment film, “Tempting Fate,” will soon be released in Nigeria.

Starring Nollywood movie icon, Ramsey Nouah, who plays the role of Ugo, the film has been unveiled in Nigeria.

Nouah is one of two brothers who are portrayed in the film following two very different paths in life. Ugo finds the life of crime appealing and is encouraged to do soby Scorpion, the gang leader characterized by the much acclaimed Hollywood actor Dan Davies. Edu is the calm, devoted Christian brother of Ugo, who is afflicted with a life threatening illness. Edu is portrayed by debuting upcoming Hollywood actor Andrew Onochie. John Vogel provides an amazing performance as Detective Travis. The star studded cast consists of Tiffany Denise Turner as Tracey, Edu’s girlfriend, along with many other exceptional actors and actresses. 

“Tempting Fate is directed by Kevin Nkem Nwankwor (KNN), and he is joined by Director of Photography Sulekh Suman.Filmed in Hollywood using state of the art technology and supported by Panavision, red. Executive producers are Emmanuel Ojeah and Unoma Nwankwor.

 Events Company is Starbrands Ltd. The movie was released on Friday July 17^TH, 2015 by Silverbird Film Distribution (W.A.) Ltd. and its currently running at major cinemas across the country. 
The Director, Mr. Nwankwor, has already earned an impeccable reputation for bringing out the best in any actor/actress who he works with. He has become a much sought after director by casting members, because of his skills in communicating of what he wants and expects, and providing very clear direction. These attributes work for the better of all those who come under his directorship.

Kevin Nkem Nwankwor’s success is partly due to the talent and skills he displayed in the writing, directing and producing of two internationally awarded short films: “Mothers Love” and “Enemy Within”.

He attributes his motivation to bring about change in the world through his passion for media. He strives to develop his skills through riveting storytelling supported with exceptional visuals, and insuring the message is delivered through precision audio.

An exemplary example of Kevin Nkem Nwankwor’s goals in life is seen in the film “Tempting Fate”. The story line of this soul touching film revolves around hope for the hopeless, and the union of families.

In a recent interview, Kevin states, “My reason for making the “Tempting Fate” film is tied to my vision. I was inspired to write this story based on current situations in our society, brothers no longer look out for each other, many people have given up on God and given up on life by making some dangerous decisions that will not only hurt them but people around them.”

There is no doubt that “Tempting Fate” will touch all of those who see it in a positive way. It will surely bring Kevin to the forefront as a new director, who can have a major impact on the lives of others through the entertainment media.  When the success of “Tempting Fate” comes to its conclusion Kevin will most likely attribute the success of the film to reaching its goal of showing that love must exist between man and his creator. The renewal of the spirit of forgiveness, nurturing the love in relationships, and most importantly that when man takes the wrong path in life, he only needs to turn to God for a new beginning.

Kevin’s directing debut in the award winning film “Tempting Fate” more than aptly delivers the message of all that this new and upcoming director stands for. It is the story of two brothers who are very different and have chosen two different paths in life.  It is packed with intrigue and action. Yet, what is portrayed through each of the brother’s actions and the storyline is something every viewer can relate to. “Tempting Fate” has the ability to change lives, leave a lasting impact, and present the challenge for everyone to take a look at where their path in life is leading them.
