The British rapper Stormzy is starting a film production company and will himself play the main role in the first film made in collaboration with Apple, writes The Guardian.
The short film "Big man" will have its premiere on Youtube on June 18 and is about Tenzman, a former rap star who tries to navigate through a new and uncertain chapter in his life.
The film is directed by Aneil Karia who won an Oscar in 2022 for his short film "The long goodbye" with Riz Ahmed in the main role.
31-year-old Stormzy, or Michael Ebenazer Owuo Jr. as he is actually called, won the prize for best album with his debut album "Gang signs & prayer" at the Brit awards 2018 and was named both 2018 and 2020 best artist.
Since then, he has built a growing empire that combines music, literature and sport and also created his own foundation.
