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.

It's a reminder of the power and potential of Nigeria's rapidly growing film industry. It is the world's second-largest film industry after India based on number of productions, with an average of 2,000 movies released annually. The movie also has been lauded as signifying the potential of the film industry in Nigeria as well as across Africa. In Nigeria, the movie industry is at “the point right now where the world needs to take notice,” Effiong said. He said that's because "The Black Book is a film by Black people, Black actors, Black producers, Black money 100%, and it’s gone ahead to become a global blockbuster."
