The movie is written and directed by Adah Obekpa, a medical doctor in the UK who is from Benue State and co-produced by Joan McCarthy.

According to Lise Romanoff, CEO and Managing Director of Vision Films, the movie depicts the “divisiveness and double standards in today’s society.”

“The American King is a cross between Coming to America and Black Panther,” she said

“While this movie is delivered with comedy, it depicts a very powerful commentary about the divisiveness and double standards in today’s society.

“We know audiences will have a good laugh and enjoy the very taken cast.”

Have you seen the movie?

Scores by anyone on IMDb or elsewhere are not better than the opinions of the over 4,000 moviegoers who have seen it in NIgeria and more people have kept it on the Top 20 highest grossing movies at the box office in the country even though showing in only selected cinemas without showing in the Filmhouse Cinemas and Viva Cinemas.
I commend the courage of Dr. Adah Obekpa, the NIgerian medical doctor based in the UK for directing and producing it without any previous experience in filmmaking.

I commend Akon alongside Andrew Howard, Nick Moran, Dani Renee and other top Hollywood stars with our Nollywood stars, Nse Ikpe-Etim, Alexx Ekubo and Enyinna Nwigwe who enjoyed educating and entertaining us on the importance of our African culture and heritage in Africa and the Diaspora in this family friendly comedy.

Akon took the role of Sebastian, an ex-con dealing with some dangerous yet sensitive Russian gangsters to whom he owes money.

Sebastian later receives an unbelievable offer from a mysterious high priestess to escape his problems and become the king of an ancient African kingdom.
The movie is written and directed by Adah Obekpa and co-produced by Joan McCarthy.

According to Lise Romanoff, CEO and managing director of Vision Films, the movie depicts the “divisiveness and double standards in today’s society.”

I am still rocking "The American King" T-shirt for the promotion of the theatrical release of the #Nollywood and #Hollywood comedy in Nigeria from March- May, 2022.

"The American King" remained on the top 12 highest grossing movies in the cinemas in Nigeria for two months as reported by the Cinema Exhibitors Association of Nigeria (CEAN).
