The film recorded earnings of £159,000 across both markets, further extending its remarkable run beyond Africa. In West Africa, it has amassed an impressive ₦2.7 billion at the box office, placing it among the biggest Nollywood productions of all time.
Its global performance has also been bolstered by strong showings in North America, where it generated $249,000 across the United States and Canada—earning the distinction of the highest-grossing Nollywood title in those territories as well.
Distributor FilmOne Entertainment described the achievement as a “record-breaking run” and a defining moment for African cinema. In a statement shared on social media, the company highlighted the film’s widespread appeal, noting that its success underscores the growing global appetite for African stories.
According to the distributor, the film’s journey from West African cinemas to international audiences reflects the power of storytelling rooted in culture, humour, and shared human experiences. The milestone, it added, represents not just a win for a single production but a significant step forward for Nollywood on the global stage.
Behind The Scenes explores themes of fame, success, and the emotional complexities behind public admiration—elements that have resonated strongly with audiences both at home and abroad.
Industry observers say the film’s performance signals increasing opportunities for Nollywood productions to achieve global recognition, as demand continues to grow for authentic African narratives across international markets.
