Popular actor and filmmaker, Kunle Afolayan, announced the launch of his new movie as he celebrated his birthday on Thursday.

The movie producer took to his verified Instagram page to celebrate himself and announce his new projects, a movie and a hub.

Sharing a picture of himself, Afolayan wrote, “Adekunle Ayodeji Akande Omo Afolayan. I thank you Lord for everything. My birthday gift to myself is the birth of @kap_hub and SWALLOW the movie.

“Official opening is today and Swallow launches on Netflix tomorrow. Thank you to all you guys for being part of my life and my story.”

Earlier this month, there were speculations that the Swallow movie was produced by Afolayan’s colleague, Kemi Adetiba.

However, Adetiba, had cleared the air about the movie production, stating that she only helped in the publicity of the movie but had nothing to do with it.

She had said, “I’ve seen a few comments that suggest some might think I’m producing the new Kunle Afolayan movie Swallow, coming out on Netflix- October 1st. Or that I’m involved in some way because I promoted it on my page.

“Nothing could be farther from the truth. My post was simply a celebration of two people I admire and respect immensely, and pointing everyone to the service where they can watch, and the day it’ll be launched.”

May you receive the greatest of joys and everlasting on your special day.

Happy birthday and a big congratulations to you on your movie launch.
