‘Daddy Yo’, the 2017 hit song of Ayo Balogun (aka Wizkid), is part of the soundtrack for British-Nigerian actor John Boyega’s new film, ‘Pacific Rim Uprising’.
Pacific Rim Uprising’, is an upcoming American science fiction and action film set for release on March 23.
The film is co-produced by Boyega; written and directed by Steven DeKnight in his feature film directorial debut.
Boyega shared this information on his Twitter page @johnboyega on Wednesday posting a video of him dancing to the song.
“One of the most exciting things about producing ‘Pacific Rim Uprising’ was the opportunity to influence the creative choices.
“So I put @wizkidayo song “Daddy yo” in the movie. Jaegers need afrobeats too! Oh yeah… here’s a video of me listening to this very song.”
“Pacific Rim is very important to me because Pacific Rim will actually be the first movie that I have done that I would heavily target Nigeria as a main marketing spot,” he had said.
Nice move, John.
