Actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele has committed her upcoming film, The Four: No One Fights Alone, to God’s hands as anticipation builds ahead of its December cinema release.

The filmmaker, who recently faced backlash for missing the premiere of her protégé Kamo State’s film, has been actively promoting ‘The Four’ in Ghana.

The project is attracting online attention amid discussions about its release and Akindele’s activities.

Akindele, who wrote, directed and produced The Four, has continued to share updates and rally support from fans and colleagues.

In a recent Instagram post, she expressed confidence in the film while leaving its outcome in God’s hands.

She wrote, “We have worked hard, we have prayed, and we have committed THE FOUR into God’s hands. I’m deeply grateful to God for how far He has brought us on this journey, and I believe with all my heart that this film is already a huge success”.

The Four is part of the highly competitive December cinema season; Toyin Abraham’s Bestie is scheduled to follow five days later on December 16, prompting renewed comparisons and debates among fans of both filmmakers.

Despite the online conversations, Akindele has remained focused on promoting her project.

She recently described The Four as a story about friendship, love, pain and struggles, while encouraging audiences to look forward to its cinema release.

Scheduled for a December 11 release, the film features Akindele alongside Waje, Bisola Aiyeola and Chioma Akpotha as the four leading women.

Other notable cast members include Richard Mofe-Damijo, Timini Egbuson, Lateef Adedimeji, Ali Nuhu and Uzor Arukwe.

The story explores friendship, motherhood, resilience, faith and loyalty.

For Akindele, the December release marks another major cinema outing following her recent box-office successes.

With online attention for The Four already growing, the filmmaker appears determined to let the film speak for itself when it finally reaches cinemas.

As the countdown continues, Akindele and her team are leaving the project in God’s hands while urging fans to show up for The Four when it opens nationwide on December 11.

“Please, my people, keep rooting for us. Keep talking about THE FOUR, sharing our posts and reposting our content. Let’s keep pushing together!! We truly appreciate every bit of your love and support,” she added. (The Nation)
