Weruche Opia spoke to HeyUGuys at the Ladies First UK Premiere at Ham Yard Hotel, London, and delivered one of the most electric conversations of the evening — a woman who was visibly, joyfully thrilled to be part of this film and absolutely unambiguous about why it matters. In Ladies First, Opia joins an ensemble cast led by Sacha Baron Cohen and Rosamund Pike, and in this candid exchange she spoke with wit, warmth and zero equivocation about gender politics, giving certain people a taste of their own medicine — and why she teared up the moment she walked onto the set.

Interviews for Ladies First at the UK Premiere. The film stars Sacha Baron
Cohen, Rosamund Pike, Richard E. Grant, Emily Mortimer, Charles Dance,
Fiona Shaw, Tom Davis, Weruche Opia and Kathryn Hunter; it was written by
Natalie Krinsky, Katie Silberman and Cinco Paul and directed by Thea Sharrock.

Colin Hart and Abigail Shii ask the questions.

Plot: High-powered ad exec Damien Sachs has it all — money, power, and a
never-ending stream of casual flings. But on the eve of his promotion to
CEO, he wakes up in his personal worst nightmare: a parallel world dominated
by women, where the rules are reversed and he must go head-to-head with a
formidable female counterpart who threatens everything he thought he knew.
Ladies First will be available on Netflix from 22nd May 2026.
