The Next Movie Star, now in its sixth year, will be extending its viewership to 10 African countries namely Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Gambia, Uganda, Malawi, Tanzania and South Africa. The Nigerian production will select sixteen housemates from these countries and the winner will walk away with a brand new SUV, movie contracts and cash prizes.
