A star-studded drama is set to shake up cinemas nationwide this August as the trailer for Hakeem: Seeking Justice sparks interest across the Nigerian film scene. The upcoming movie tells the gripping story of one man’s unrelenting pursuit of justice in a society built to suppress him.
Slated for nationwide cinema release on August 1st, Hakeem: Seeking Justice features a powerful ensemble cast that includes some of Nollywood’s most respected names, crossover entertainers, and fast-rising talents. Leading the cast is Deyemi Okanlawon, joined by Chioma Akpotha, Zubby Michael, Regina Daniels, Bolanle Ninalowo, Gabriel Afolayan, Femi Branch, and Ali Nuhu.
Adding to the star power are reality and music industry figures such as Roseline “Liquor Rose” Afije, Raoul John Njeng-Njeng popularly known as Skales, and Hazel Oyeze “White Money” Onou. Also featured are Saeed “Funky Mallam” Mohammed, Eso Dike, and Boma Akpore, each contributing to the film’s dynamic mix of seasoned and contemporary talent.
The trailer teases a story filled with tension, courage, and resistance, highlighting a man’s struggle to reclaim his dignity and humanity in the face of a corrupt and oppressive system. With themes rooted in injustice, survival, and redemption, the movie promises an emotionally charged experience that mirrors the societal challenges faced by many.
Directed by JJC Skillz, who also doubles as an executive producer and co-producer, Hakeem: Seeking Justice is a collaborative effort between some of the industry’s most active creators. The film is produced by Moosty Czar and JJC Skillz, with executive production credits going to Hagbai Ofoh, JJC Skillz, and Shaibu Bello.
The film is shot by director of photography Olacardoso, whose past work has been praised for visual clarity and narrative energy. Distribution is handled by FilmOne Entertainment, a company known for supporting quality Nigerian films with mass appeal.
The production is backed by Afristar Media, a fast-growing film company focused on creating socially conscious content with wide audience reach. According to early reports, the film combines a strong storyline with compelling performances and is expected to attract viewers looking for substance-driven cinema.
Since the trailer dropped, early social media reactions suggest that audiences are eager to see how the cast brings the story to life. With a blend of A-list actors, entertainers from other creative sectors, and high production values, Hakeem: Seeking Justice may shape up to be one of Nollywood’s major theatrical events of the year.
As the countdown to its August 1st release begins, anticipation continues to build for this tale of courage and accountability in the face of systemic failure.
