Afrobeats star Davido has revealed plans to venture into acting and film production, with the singer set to co-executive produce upcoming films alongside filmmaker and longtime collaborator Dammy Twitch.
In a recent interview with VIBE magazine, the award-winning Afrobeats star revealed that he is set to appear in a film in 2026 while also co-executive producing two films alongside filmmaker and cinematographer Dammy Twitch. Davido has previously made cameo appearances in Toyin Abraham’s 2020 comedy Fate of Alakada and Coming 2 America, where he appeared as himself in a musical performance.
Davido also discussed his sixth album Oriadé, family support, and the early struggles of his career : sharing on the interview that he does not want his children to go into the music industry because he knows firsthand the heavy toll it takes, though he wouldn’t outrightly stop them. He credited his family as his core anchor for helping him push through major personal losses and public scandals.
Dammy Twitch and Davido first began working together in 2017, when Davido’s team brought him on board to shoot and cover performances. This collaboration quickly led to Dammy Twitch directing the DMW label music video for “Aje” in Senegal later that year. Following these early assignments, he became an integral part of Davido’s visual team and has since documented the artist’s tours around the world.
