What’s up, gospel movie fans all over the world? You’re welcome to this Fantalk edition where we’ll be talking about the anticipated release of Abattoir Season 2. Sincerely, that July-August period last year during the lockdown wherein Abattoir Season 1 ran was a memorable time for me. Season 1 was such a blessing and was so enjoyable. So, naturally, when Season 1 ended, delighted audiences began to long for Season 2 which was subsequently initially planned for release late last year. When I saw a tweet by the creator, Damilola Mike-Bamiloye, with an image of the script for Season 2, Episodes 3 & 4, I was so thankful to God and I thought that at least, the shooting had commenced, only for its trailer to be released a few days after. As usual, we’ll be making cast, crew and plot guesses. So, let’s do just that!
THE CAST, THE CREW AND THE PLOT
From the trailer, we see our beloved cast and I was particularly delighted to see the teenage Martins played by Goodness Adegbola again in this season; we last saw him in the Season 1 Episode 2 but he’s here again as this Season would probably start as the first one did, that is, from the past. Old cast like Martins, Chief Durosanya, Gbade, Baba Gbenro, Mama Gbenro, Flora, Mr Adegbola and The Grandmaster feature in this trailer. We also find some new cast such as Bukola Omolola, Adeola Adetoye and Toluwalope Adegbo, who featured as Femi in the latest Gospel movie from Faith-lift and Mount Zion, Jailer.
With Martins apprehended by the police, Chief Durosanya has the chance to become the heart of the secret seer, while Martins becomes the secret seer. Would Martins willingly join the fraternity? Probably not, but the trailer suggests so because Durosanya now wants to rise yet higher by riding the third dimension. Whose blood would he need for that? Could it be Gbade’s, his loyal friend?
On another note, Durosanya’s and Gbade’s plan to get rid of Flora might not be that straightforward because from the trailer, she still features in three different scenes. I’m not surprised though; she’s a hard nut to crack. Here, she is even ready to defend herself. Seriously, some thrilling stuff is gonna happen in this season.
Then, to the young Martins, I guess we’ll see a bit of the events that followed his arrival at Baba Gbenro’s house, as we see him putting on the same shirt he wore when he got there, and smashing, not a plate, not a phone, but a stool on the floor, to the horror of Baba and Mama Gbenro. I hope Goodness Adegbola didn’t get injured in that process. I guess we’ll still get to see Dele because we still see his father, who comes to see Martins in a scene at a time when Baba Gbenro probably also arrives at the police station. Martins is forcefully restrained from trying to see him in what will possibly be quite an emotional scene.
Bukola Omolola and Adeola Adetoye are probably mother and daughter of whom I don’t know, but they are obviously in distress. On a note that captivated audiences far and wide, Baba Gbenro tries to help Martins out of his predicament and probably has to go through a lot, which very much gets on Mama Gbenro’s nerves. The extents of his love will probably be tested here. This definitely is a season worth seeing.
