Could this be the first ever movie created on Twitter?

Rihanna and actor Lupita Nyong’o claim they want to make a movie invented by fans on Twitter.

A picture of the pair from 2014 Paris Fashion Week went viral over the weekend, with one user captioning the image, “a picture for the history books.”

A Twitter user called 1800SADGAL then responded with the concept for the greatest film you’ve never seen.
