A powerful new limited drama series, ”Rise Again,” is set to premiere this Sunday, October 19th, at 8 p.m., featuring a star-studded cast including fan favorites Liquorose, Hermes Iyele, Mr P, and dance legend Kaffy.
Produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Unlimited LA, the series marks his highly anticipated debut in television. “Rise Again” tells the gripping story of Charles, a gifted dancer whose dreams are shattered by betrayal, injury, and heartbreak.
His journey to reclaim his passion culminates in the fierce Naija Step Showdown, a high-stakes university dance competition.
The series is a testament to resilience, redemption, and the relentless pursuit of dreams, capturing the spirit of young Nigerians overcoming adversity. The ensemble cast also features Toluwanimi George, Saint Tioni, KoKoByKhloe, Dada Boy Ehiz, Do2dtun, and Chief Femi Branch.
For Unlimited LA, the project represents a significant creative shift. “I’ve shot over 1,000 music videos, and I got tired,” he shared. “I asked myself if I could just transition into filmmaking, and ‘Rise Again’ is the answer to that challenge.”
