Actor and singer 39_forty from Ghana has responded to rumors that he was not present at the recent film premiere of “1957,” which was produced by his close friend Kyekyeku.
39_forty made it clear that, although not being on screen, he was an important coordinator for the film’s production.
Several well-known actors, including Ackabenezzer (Ras Nene), Wofa Shifo, Papa Kumasi, Bernice Asare, Kalsome Sinara, Safia Haroun, and Slyvester Agyapong, were in the film, which advocates for tribal tolerance.
While 39_forty was originally cast for a role in the film, he later explained in an interview with Papa Jay of Poleeno Multimedia that News & Vibes monitored that he was entrusted with coordinating the set to ensure the flawless execution of the shooting process.
He made it clear that he and Kyekyeku were on good terms and refuted any speculations to the contrary. 39_forty’s behind-the-scenes work was crucial to the film’s production success even though it was not shown on screen.
Kyekyeku debuted his first independently produced film, “1957,” at the SG Mall on March 6, 2024.
