A hypnotic pop artist who’s toured the UK with Boyzlife, a dedicated philanthropist, and orchestra conductor – is there anything Qymira can’t do? Now, she reveals a thrilling addition to the list. The star is set to grace the silver screen after announcing her acting debut in Pedring Lopez’s English-language debut film, ‘Shadow Transit.’
Starring alongside Yoshi Sudarso, Qymira will headline the cast of a Filipino action-noir film – a co-production between Hong Kong-based act3 and Lopez’s Manila-based BlackOps Studios Asia. Set to begin filming in July, the project marks the studio’s first feature-length production. After reaching No. 3 on the UK Dance Chart with her single ‘Labyrinth of Life,’ Qymira has firmly established herself in the music scene – and now, she’s setting her sights on Hollywood. With her cinematic sound, striking visuals, and magnetic stage presence, she’s poised to bring a unique charisma to the screen.
With international sales commenced at the Marche du Films at this year’s Cannes, ‘Shadow Transit’ is not only Qymira’s first lead role, but a poignant story close to her heart. ‘
“‘Shadow Transit’ is more than just my first lead role – It’s everything I’ve ever dreamed of in a film: raw, human, wildly artistic, and unflinchingly brutal’ she shared. ‘It’s a story of survival that hits you in the gut and stays in your heart. Getting the chance to bring this to life is more than a dream – it’s an absolute honour”.
