Get Ready to Soar: Nollywood Welcomes Disney's "Iwaju" Animated Series!

Hey Nollywood fam, gather around because we've got some exciting news flying your way straight from the magical kingdom of Disney! Brace yourselves for the much-anticipated premiere of Disney's newest animated series, "Iwaju," set to grace our screens on February 28th, 2024.
Now, you might be wondering, what's all the buzz about "Iwaju"? Well, let me tell you, this isn't just your ordinary animated series. "Iwaju" is a groundbreaking collaboration between Disney Animation Studios and African talent, including the renowned Nigerian artist and filmmaker, Kugali.



Set in a futuristic Lagos, Nigeria, "Iwaju" promises to take viewers on an exhilarating journey filled with action, adventure, and a sprinkle of African magic. From what we've seen in the trailers, the animation is nothing short of breathtaking, with vibrant colors and stunning visuals that bring the bustling streets of Lagos to life like never before.
But it's not just the animation that has us buzzing with excitement; it's the story itself. "Iwaju" follows the adventures of a group of young heroes as they navigate a world where technology and ancient mysticism collide. With themes of courage, friendship, and the power of embracing one's heritage, "Iwaju" is poised to captivate audiences of all ages.
What's even more thrilling is the representation and diversity showcased in the series. We will get to see characters that look like us, speak like us, and share our rich culture and traditions on a global platform like Disney. It's a momentous step forward for African storytelling, and we couldn't be more proud to see our narratives taking center stage.
So mark your calendars, set your reminders, and gather the family because "Iwaju" is set to be an epic ride that you won't want to miss. Get ready to soar high above the skyline of Lagos and embark on an adventure unlike any other. The countdown to February 28th begins now, and we'll see you there, front row and center, as we cheer on this groundbreaking moment in animation history. Nollywood, let's show the world the magic of "Iwaju"!
