By Internet sensation group, Ikorodu Bois, has appeared in a Netflix advert displayed on Broadway Times Square, New York City.
Situated in Midtown Manhattan section of New York City, the Times Square is a major tourist destination and entertainment center in the United States.
In the ad, a clip of a trailer remake by Ikorodu Bois was included.
The group, formed of brothers Muiz Sanni, 15, and Malik Sanni, 10, as well as their cousin, 13-year-old Fawas, is known for remaking, mimicking and recreating multimillion-dollar music videos, movie scenes and movie trailers using ordinary household items. Their elder brother, Babatunde Sanni helps edit the videos and manage the stars.
However, this isn’t the first time the group will be getting an international recognition.
Ikorodu Bois went viral earlier last year after they recreated the trailer for Extraction, an action-packed Netflix movie, starring actor Chris Hemsworth.
In August 2020, they were sent a series of high-tech camera equipment, including Boom microphones, tripods, voice recorders and even an Apple iMac computer from streaming giant Netflix.
They recently bagged a nomination in the 2021 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards, having made it to the list of nominees for the ‘Favourite African Social Media Star’ category — which was won by kid comedian, Emmanuella.
