Music sensation Davido has set his sights on the film industry, revealing his desire to play the role of a taxi driver in an upcoming movie.
Speaking at the Africa International Film Festival (AFRIFF) panel session titled; “Rhythms of the Continent: The Afrobeat Movement and Its Impacts on African Film”, Davido expressed his excitement about venturing into film production and collaborating with African creatives.
“My brother was saying that he was going to give me a role. I told him I wanted to do a role that would be shot by a taxi driver or something — like something out of the blue. He has to figure that out. So I definitely want to get involved in movies,” he said.
The award-winning hitmaker revealed that he draws inspiration from global icons like 50 Cent, who made a smooth crossover from music to film and television production.
According to Davido, he’s eager to follow a similar path — producing authentic African stories that truly capture the continent’s spirit and culture. He also mentioned that he’s been inspired by thought-provoking series like “Uncorked,” which further fueled his passion for storytelling beyond music.
