The lead actors on Flawsome fully immersed themselves in their roles as Enado Odigie, an award-winning actress on Flawsome, revealed that the ladies cried for almost an hour after a scene was filmed.
According to the actor, while speaking at the Flawsome official premiere on Thursday, November 10, 2022, this scene was one of Bisola Aiyeola’s scenes that really touched the entire cast, and they needed to decompress and cry it out.
“There was a scene with Ifeyinwa, and the way Bisola went into her character pulled all of us. It was the last scene of the day, and we had to take a moment, they had to lock us in the room by ourselves to decompress and it took a while. It wasn’t my character’s thing but it was so heavy for all of us. Sometimes delivering those scenes can be very stressful.”
Tola Odunsi, the executive director of the drama series, revealed that it took time to drag them out of that space they were in.
Although that makes for a good film, it’s one of the most challenging things for the actors involved as they have to perfectly display and express emotions that are not theirs.
“As an actor, you have to feel pain and happiness that is not yours, and there were a lot of heavy moments not just for my character, but moments I had to share with other characters,” Enado added.
Watch all these moments of sadness and laughter on Showmax as new episodes of Flawsome premiere every Thursday.
