Nollywood filmmaker and actress Funke Akindele, in partnership with FilmOne Entertainment, has announced the United Kingdom premiere of her forthcoming movie, THE FOUR, scheduled for November 29, 2026.
The highly anticipated premiere will take place at the iconic ODEON Luxe Leicester Square in London, United Kingdom.
The announcement marks what the organisers describe as a historic milestone for Nigerian cinema, with THE FOUR becoming the first Nollywood title to premiere at the prestigious Leicester Square venue.
The development represents another moment of international recognition for Nigeria’s growing film industry, as Nollywood continues to expand its presence in global entertainment markets.
Funke Akindele, whose filmmaking career has produced several commercially successful Nigerian movies, is partnering with FilmOne Entertainment to bring the production to an international audience.
The choice of ODEON Luxe Leicester Square is particularly significant, given the venue’s reputation as a prominent destination for major film premieres and international entertainment events.
The November 29 event is expected to attract members of the Nigerian entertainment industry, international guests, film enthusiasts and members of the African diaspora in the United Kingdom.
Beyond the glamour of the red carpet, the premiere is expected to provide another opportunity to showcase Nigerian storytelling, filmmaking talent and creative excellence to international audiences.
As anticipation builds ahead of the London event, attention will be on the reception of THE FOUR and what the milestone could mean for the global visibility of Nollywood productions
