Ugandan actors including Micheal Wawuyo Sr, Sam Bagenda and Wilberforce Mutete.
Miss Uganda patron, Brenda Nanyonjo, martial artist, Carlos Ombonya, and beauty queen and TV host, Anita Kyarimpa Fabiola also make an appearance.
But it is singer Jose Chameleone who will surprise the audience despite only playing a cameo role.
The Wale Wale star does not feature in the film’s original version that was released November last year in Asia under the title, Escape from Uganda.
Producers however felt compelled to fix him in the film’s Ugandan version that is set for premiere next month.
“We wanted to bring a high degree of Uganda flavor to the film so as to be able to engage the local audience more keenly,” the film’s producer, Girisch Nair, said of his decision to give one of Africa’s finest musicians his first acting gig.
But the move, which will no doubt sell the film given the singer’s huge fan base, came at an extra cost considering that new scenes had to be shot and the film had to be reedited.
Meanwhile, the singer, who together with his colleague Irene Namubiru lent their vocals to the film’s soundtrack, has taken to social media to share his excitement at having appeared in a film for the first time in his life.
