The Woman King
Her reign begins.
Directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood
Produced by TriStar Pictures, JuVee Productions
An action-driven historical drama about female warriors reclaiming agency and power against systemic oppression, balancing spectacle with emotional weight.
The story of the Agojie, the all-female unit of warriors who protected the African Kingdom of Dahomey in the 1800s with skills and a fierceness unlike anything the world has ever seen, and General Nanisca as she trains the next generation of recruits and readies them for battle against an enemy determined to destroy their way of life.
