Controversy over Iyanya, Yvonne Nelson role in upcoming movie

It looks like Iyanya will be having Yvonne Nelson's waist all to himself pretty soon…

Reports say the pair will feature in an upcoming movie 'Ransom' produced by Elvis Chuks ('True Citizen', 'Huslter').

There was however some controversy following the report which broke today (January 7, 2014); An earlier report published on Linda Ikeji's blog claimed that the movie was Nelson's and the actress had reached out to her former lover for a role.

Yvonne immediately called out the blogger on Twitter, 'Hi @lindaikeji pls be accurate with stories involving my name. Thank you', suggesting that the movie wasn't hers…

The actress then confirmed to Bella Naija that Iyanya won't be part of any movie she would produce. 'It's false. I haven't approached anyone. Whoever is writing or sending these stories should stop it. I don't intend to cast Iyanya in my movie. Very false. Ikeji was forced to delete the post.

Alas, it might all just be another a publicity stunt orchestrated by Yvonne Nelson. Linda Ikeji claims Nelson's team sent her the news claiming that Chuks's movie was hers. 

'@yvonnenelsongh lol. The things I don't say about u people. U my darling sent some1 to tell me it's ur movie. U want to trend today, ba? lol', Linda Ikeji replied the actress.

Yvonne Nelson's last produced movie was 'House of Gold' which featured the likes of Ice Prince and Omawumi.
