In a jaw-dropping revelation that has sent shockwaves across the entertainment industry, Nigerian entrepreneur and showman, Peller, claimed he turned down a staggering 3 billion offer from streaming giant Netflix. The offer, according to Peller, was for a single, highly controversial scene: a kiss with Jarvis, the AI-human hybrid character from his upcoming sci-fi drama series.
The statement came during a candid conversation with music star Peter Okoye, where Peller spoke openly about the moral and cultural boundaries he believes should guide creative decisions—regardless of financial incentives.
“They brought 3 billion to the table. Just for that scene. A kiss with Jarvis. But I told them – I won’t do it. Not everything can be bought,” Peller said, drawing a mix of awe and debate from fans online.
The claim has sparked massive discussion about the evolving role of artificial intelligence in film, the line between art and ethics, and the lengths some platforms are willing to go to generate buzz.
Netflix has not yet commented on the alleged offer.
