Stormzy has announced he’s launching his own film production company – and will star in its first release.
#Merkyfilm, like the rapper’s other projects #Merkybooks and #MerkyFC, will focus on celebrating black British stories and talent, he says.
Its first project is short film Big Man, directed by Oscar-winning film-maker Aneil Karia, known for projects including The Long Goodbye and Surge.
It’ll be released on YouTube on 18 June and stars Stormzy as a former rap star navigating an uncertain new chapter.
