King of Thieves (Agẹṣinkólé) is a 2022 Nigerian epic thriller film directed by Adebayo Tijani and Tope Adebayo, and produced by Femi Adebayo.

Background, production and release

Producer and lead actor Femi Adebayo stated that the idea for King of Thieves had been in development for several years, driven by his desire to create a large-scale Yoruba-language film that would showcase indigenous culture, mythology, and storytelling using high production values.

According to Adebayo, pre-production and planning spanned over a year, partly due to the challenges of assembling a large ensemble cast and identifying locations suitable for depicting the fictional kingdom of Ajeromi. He also noted that additional logistical and security measures were required during filming, given the scale of the production and the number of people involved.

The film premiered on 4 April 2022 and was released theatrically across Nigeria on 8 April 2022.
