Drama as Taye Arimoro and Peggy Ovire Clash on Movie Set
A heated moment unfolded on a Nollywood movie set when popular actor and filmmaker Taye Arimoro reportedly clashed with actress Peggy Ovire during a film shoot. According to eyewitnesses, the disagreement stemmed from creative differences regarding a particular scene’s direction and delivery, which quickly escalated into a tense exchange between the two stars.
Sources close to the production revealed that the altercation began when Arimoro, who also plays a behind-the-scenes role in the project, corrected Ovire’s performance style. The actress, known for her professionalism and passion for excellence, allegedly disagreed with his approach, leading to an argument that briefly halted filming. Crew members had to step in to calm the situation before production resumed later in the day.
The incident has since stirred conversation online, with fans expressing mixed reactions — some defending both actors’ commitment to their craft, while others criticized the outburst as unprofessional. Neither Arimoro nor Ovire has issued an official statement about the clash, though insiders suggest that both have since reconciled to ensure the movie’s smooth completion.
The upcoming film, which reportedly features an impressive ensemble cast, continues to generate anticipation among Nollywood fans despite the brief on-set drama. Industry watchers say such creative disputes are not uncommon in film production, often reflecting the high standards and artistic passion of those involved.
