Africa’s global music titan is stepping behind the camera. Burna Boy will executive produce the world premiere of “3 Cold Dishes,” a powerful new film directed by visionary filmmaker Oluseyi Amuwa (@iamasurf)—on October 3, 2025, at Indigo at The O2, London.
Long hailed as a culture-shifter in music, Burna Boy’s move into cinema signals the next phase of Afrobeats’ global expansion. “3 Cold Dishes” arrives as a marquee crossover moment—where Nigerian storytelling, London’s cosmopolitan energy, and a Grammy-winning brand of cultural influence collide for a red-carpet debut that’s primed to trend beyond film circles.
The premiere at Indigo at The O2 promises a high-gloss night of fashion, film, and fandom: a star-heavy guest list, live music moments, and post-screening conversations that place African narratives at the center of global pop culture. With Amuwa’s reputation for bold, human-first storytelling and Burna Boy’s instinct for scale, anticipation is sky-high for a project positioned to travel—festivals, streamers, and international markets firmly in view.
“3 Cold Dishes” underscores a rapidly maturing creative economy where music powerhouses incubate film IP, financiers follow, and African stories are packaged as premium global content. For Nollywood and the wider African film ecosystem, this premiere is both a milestone and a mandate: build big, think borderless, and lead with craft.
Circle the date. World Premiere: “3 Cold Dishes,” indigo at The O2, London — October 3, 2025. Burna Boy is expanding the map again, and London gets the first look.
