āIt took a long time to get here. Almost 4 decades.ā
Words that stayed with us.
Honored to celebrate our incredible lead actor Ricky Adelayitar @popericky69@kekelirickykofi
Always professional. Always generous.
Setting the tone, checking on everyone, cracking jokes, and making sure the work stayed strong. And somehow became all of our Ghana uncle along the way. š¬š
The kind of uncle who shows up early, leads with love, and still steals the scene.
This moment belongs to every step that came before it. šš
BIG MOOD For tomorrow!!

What keeps actors going when things get tough?
For Endurance, from the cast of @thefisherman.film š¬š, itās not just passion ā itās purpose.
She shares a shift that changed everything:
realizing her creativity might be for someone sheās never even met.
Showing up even when the money isnāt thereā¦
because what she creates could give someone a reason to keep going.
And maybe acting isnāt just art ā
maybe, for her, itās a form of preaching.

āDo you know why African men still have a āsoundā in film?ā
Why is Africannessāespecially for African menāsomething that has to be performedā¦ through accents, tone, or even presence?
Endurance Grand from @thefisherman.film unpacks the unspoken rules of representation:
The expectation to project a certain version of āAfricannessāā¦
And how African men are often boxed into narrow, sellable stereotypes to make that identity feel believable on screen.
But if being African is in usā¦
why does it still need to be proven?

Whatās the biggest difference between Ghana and Nigerian film industries?
#CastOnCue #AfricanFilm #Nollywood #GhanaFilm #Storytelling CreativeIndustry
For years, African men have been labelled āsavagesā who must be strong, silent, unbreakable.
Their counterparts in African women expected to respond in ways that āsoftenā that strength.
But hereās the real question:

Ambition builds youā¦
But greed? Thatās where things start to fall apart.
This isnāt just a story about the industry ā
itās about ego, growth, and the uncomfortable truth of becoming better.
Because sometimes the hardest part of the journeyā¦
is unlearning who you thought you had to be.
And maybeā¦ being human isnāt the flaw. Itās the point.
