HBO has officially locked in December 11, 2025 as the global premiere date for “Wizkid: Long Live Lagos,” the highly anticipated documentary that explores the superstar’s journey from the streets of Lagos to international dominance.
The film, part of HBO’s acclaimed Music Box series, delivers never-before-seen footage, intimate interviews, and behind-the-scenes moments that reveal new layers of Wizkid’s life, artistry, and cultural impact.
