Hidden project stretched me beyond limit-Ireti Doyle

By David Kabiyesi

Screen goddess, Ireti Doyle said her return to the screen with a thriller drama series titled The Hidden did not come at a cheap price.

Commenting on the project, the mother of six admitted that the project stretched her beyond limit.

“The story examines the human condition, which is inexhaustible and always needs to be updated.”   “This project stretched me. I wore several hats and had several oversights alongside the mother of all – being the executive producer, meaning that ultimately the buck stops at my table. I think that I handled it well without dropping too many balls.  

“This story was one of several in my drafts. It was created years ago and was originally called “Project Streetwise.” Same premise: the protagonist is someone that has experienced life and uses the same to help others.   

“The main difference between the two is that the original story was centered on teenagers and young adults, while The Hidden is centered on grown folks. When I summoned the courage to pitch, I looked through my drafts, chose the most viable, and tweaked it,” she said
