Funke Akindele Celebrates as The Four’s London Premiere Tickets Sell Out
Nollywood actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele has another reason to celebrate as tickets for the United Kingdom premiere of her upcoming movie, The Four: No One Fights Alone, have reportedly sold out ahead of the highly anticipated event in London.
The announcement is another encouraging development for the filmmaker, whose productions have continued to attract attention from audiences beyond Nigeria. The UK premiere is scheduled for November 29, 2026, at ODEON Luxe Leicester Square, one of London’s prominent cinema venues.
The event is being organised by Funke Akindele Network in partnership with FilmOne Entertainment. According to the announcement, the venue has a capacity of 791 seats, making the reported sell-out a notable moment in the film’s promotional campaign.
The development has also generated excitement among fans looking forward to seeing the cast and celebrating the film ahead of its Nigerian cinema release.
Funke Akindele Shares Excitement Over London Premiere
Before the sell-out announcement, Funke Akindele had expressed excitement about taking The Four to ODEON Luxe Leicester Square.
The filmmaker described the premiere as a significant achievement and an opportunity to showcase Nigerian filmmaking on an international platform. She also acknowledged the people who have supported her journey, including her cast, crew and fans.
Akindele’s message also carried an encouraging word for upcoming filmmakers. She urged creatives not to give up on their dreams, highlighting the importance of persistence and believing in the possibilities available to Nigerian storytellers.
The choice of venue has also attracted attention because of its profile in the London film scene. Hosting a Nollywood premiere at such a location provides an opportunity to bring Nigerian cinema to a wider audience and introduce the film to viewers outside the country.

What We Know About The Four
Titled The Four: No One Fights Alone, the upcoming production brings together an ensemble cast of established Nollywood performers and entertainers.
The cast includes Funke Akindele, Chioma Akpotha, Bisola Aiyeola, Waje, Richard Mofe-Damijo, Timini Egbuson, Lateef Adedimeji and Uzor Arukwe.
The combination of actors has already made the film one to watch among Nollywood audiences, particularly those interested in productions featuring familiar faces from different areas of the entertainment industry.
However, the premiere sell-out is only one part of the film’s journey. Its reception when it eventually reaches cinemas will provide a clearer picture of how audiences respond to the production.
When Will The Four Be Released in Nigerian Cinemas?
Following its London premiere on November 29, The Four: No One Fights Alone is scheduled to arrive in Nigerian cinemas on December 11, 2026.
The gap between the international premiere and the Nigerian cinema release gives the production an opportunity to build anticipation ahead of its local debut.
For Nigerian movie lovers, the December release will be the chance to experience the film on the big screen. It will also be interesting to see how the movie performs during the festive cinema season, when several productions compete for audience attention.
Another Milestone for Funke Akindele?
Funke Akindele has remained one of the prominent figures in Nigeria’s film industry, with her work as an actress, filmmaker and producer attracting significant attention.
Taking The Four to London for a premiere at ODEON Luxe Leicester Square, followed by the reported ticket sell-out, adds another noteworthy moment to her filmmaking journey.
Beyond the excitement surrounding the event, the development also reflects the growing interest in presenting Nigerian films to international audiences. Nollywood’s ability to reach viewers outside the country remains an important part of the industry’s continued growth.
With the London premiere approaching and the Nigerian cinema release scheduled for December 11, attention will now turn to the film itself and the response it receives from moviegoers.
For now, Funke Akindele and the team behind The Four have a successful UK premiere ticket campaign to celebrate, while fans wait to see what the movie has to offer.
