Nigerians have always been proud of Nollywood stars and one of the stars we are often most proud of is Jenifa herself! And now she has taken her art to Hollywood! The delectable Funke Akindele has been announced as part of the cast of Marvels most anticipated movie, ‘Avengers: Infinity Wars’. Who would have thought? She will appear on the BIG screen with Chris Hemsworth, Robert Downey Jr, and other world-famous actors.
Funke Akindele will appear in ‘Avengers: Infinity War’
This film is considered one of the most anticipated movies of 2018. Fans of the Marvel universe in all corners of the world want to see a new film about popular superheroes.
Participation of Funke Akindele in this film is a great career success because in addition to the two above mentioned actors with the world name she will interact with such well-known personalities as Benicio Del Toro, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Evans.

Who is the Funke’s character?
It’s known that she is the member of Dora Milaje. This is a team of women who serve as personal bodyguards of the Wakanda spiritual leader Black Panther.
Brief plot of the film
While the Avengers and their allies continue to protect the world from threats that are too great to cope with. Thanos, a tyrant of intergalactic scale is the main villain in the film. His goal is to collect six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power. With their help, he may impose his will on the whole world. All for which the Avengers fought led them to this point. The fate of the Earth and the entire universe never was so vague!
All this sounds quite epic and exciting. Again we will enjoy dangerous adventures, fights, and great victories. Bright images, exciting special effects, and of course the favorite Nigerian star on the screen – all this will be seen by fans very soon!
