Idris Elba has shared more on his plans to help build the entertainment industry in Africa.
The Golden Globe winner has said he planned to build film studios in Ghana and Tanzania.
A 2021 UNESCO report said that the film industry could help add $20 billion to Africa's combined GDP.
"I would certainly consider settling down here; not even consider, it's going to happen," he continued, adding: "I'm going to live in Accra, I'm going to live in Freetown, I'm going to live in Zanzibar.
Africa's film industry is growing rapidly, and certain major streaming successes, such as Netflix's Nigerian crime thriller "The Black Book," offer increasing optimism for the sector.
