Nollywood star and filmmaker Funke Akindele has made a heartfelt appeal to fans, urging them not to record or share clips from her latest movie, Behind The Scenes, currently showing in cinemas.
The actress stressed that piracy threatens the success of films and diminishes the intense effort, creativity, and resources poured into bringing stories to life. She called on her supporters to help protect the project by watching it legally and amplifying her message across social media.
She wrote, “Say no to direct & indirect piracy. Hello, my beautiful fans. We’re super excited that Behind the Scenes is showing in cinemas, but please let’s say a big no to recording any scenes of #BehindTheScenes in the cinema. Recording or posting clips, even short ones, is also piracy.

“Yes, take pictures at the roll-up banners and share your reviews, but no recording inside the cinema, please. Kindly share this message with family and friends; let’s support the hard work behind this masterpiece. See you at the cinemas! Thank you.”
Released on December 12, Behind The Scenes pulls back the curtain on the emotional battles and unseen realities that accompany success and fame. Funke revealed that the story was inspired by a divine message and described the film as deeply personal.
The movie features a star-studded cast, including Tobi Bakre, Iyabo Ojo, Scarlet Gomez, and Ini Dima-Okojie, adding to the buzz surrounding the cinema release.
