The Woman King tells the story of the legendary Agojie warriors. Based on the real all-female army that protected the West African kingdom of Dahomey in the 1800s, the movie stars Viola Davis, Lashana Lynch, and John Boyega – and the Star W𒆙ars actor already has an idea fo𒁏r a sequel. Boyega, who plays King Ghezo in the historical epic, wants to explore the more sinister side of his character’s history. 

"I mean, we'll see," Boyega coyly tells Totaᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚl Film when asked about a sequel. "But, I definitely think if there was an expansion to his character, then [it could be in a sequel]. Especially if you watched a movie, you get the undertones of the end scene that there might be more of an expansion to be explored, but who knows? It depends on you guys, the big bosses."

. "Gina [Prince-Bythewood, director] said she doesn’t believe in sequels, but John had a nice idea for the sequel," the actor who plays Nawi said. 

"Basically, to go back to the histo💞ry of the Dahomey – where he isn’t really a favorable king in real history. He would want us to touch on that in the second one. What if we see him as more of a villain? That type of situation."

It's certainly an interesting prospect, but we'll just have to wait and see what Sony decides. The Woman King is in cinemas now and for more on the movie, check our in-depth interview with Boyega and director Gina Prince-Bythewood about makꦰing The Woman King and the pressure of awards buzz.
