Upcoming Movie: Black Gold – Struggle for the Niger Delta


This movie is a powerful story of greed, murder and corruption in the murky waters of the volatile oil rich Niger Delta region of Nigeria. It is an epic film about environmental justice and the fight over the control of the scarce oil resources that the world runs on.

The line between good and evil is blurred as corrupt government officials, greedy oil companies and violent rebels go on a war path over oil spills and degradation of the land caused by oil exploration

Black Gold features a Nollywood [Nigeria’s Hollywood] meets Hollywood cast which includes: Tom Sizemore (Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down, Heat), Vivica A. Fox (Independence Day, Kill Bill), Michael Madsen (Reservoir Dogs, Donnie Brasco, Kill Bill), Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight, The Expendables), Billy Zane (Titanic), Sarah Wayne Callies (Prison Break), Hakeem Kae-Kazim (Pirates of the Carribean, Hotel Rwanda), Razaaq Adoti (Black Hawk Down, Resident Evil: Apocalypse) and Mbong Amata (Inale, Amazing Grace).
