Nollywood star Funke Akindele has extended her record-breaking dominance as her latest film, Behind The Scenes, crossed ₦1.1 billion at the Nigerian box office, becoming the highest-grossing Nollywood movie of 2025 so far.
FilmOne Entertainment confirmed that the movie grossed ₦1,109,463,846 just 19 days after its cinema release, making it the fastest film in West Africa to cross the ₦1 billion mark. The film also set a new record on Boxing Day with the highest single-day box office gross ever, earning ₦129.5 million.
FilmOne described the feat as historic, noting that Akindele is now the only filmmaker to deliver three consecutive ₦1 billion films within a single calendar year. The success of Behind The Scenes follows her earlier blockbusters, A Tribe Called Judah and Everybody Loves Jenifa.
