According to the Producer of Knockout, Wale Adenuga Jnr., “We’re glad everyone at the premiere had lots of fun and we apologise to those who suffered ‘Laughter Overdose’ from the hilarious movie. Seriously speaking though, ‘Knockout’ is an excellent opportunity for the whole family to bond, laugh and learn especially this Easter holiday. In addition to the multiple superstars seen in the trailer, the movie has several unexpected cameo appearances from people you can’t even imagine; so we really recommend that you and your loved ones watch Knockout as soon as it starts showing this Easter weekend so you don’t hear any spoilers from your friends or on social media.”
