‘House of Ga’a’ Directed by Bolanle Austen-Peters Makes Netflix’s Global Top 10 Chart

The Netflix original film, House of Ga’a, directed by Bolanle Austen-Peters, has achieved a significant milestone by making it to the streamer’s Top 10 global chart for non-English films.

Austen-Peters is renowned for her directorial prowess in both theatre and screen. Some of her notable works include Man of God, Bling Lagosians, and Collision Course.

Her acclaimed plays include Saro, the Musical, Fela and the Kalakuta Queens, and Death and the King’s Horseman, written by Wole Soyinka.

Set in the 18th century Oyo Empire, House of Ga’a tells the gripping tale of a power-hungry political figure, Ga’a, who initiates a brutal betrayal of a series of kings.

The ruthless prime minister, desperate for revenge, cruelly rises to the top, stopping at nothing to become more powerful than the kings he serves.

In an Instagram post, Austen-Peters expressed her gratitude for the film’s success since its release.

“Dear all. I woke up to this heartwarming news. Apart from being No. 1 in Nigeria, we are No 7 on Netflix Global (Non-English films). It wouldn’t have been possible without every single person that has pushed and watched House of Ga’a. We have had 3.4 million views in 5 days. Let’s continue to push as we celebrate African stories,” she said.
