It’s officially the Chinese Year of the Horse, and Hong Kong-born singer Qymira is perfectly aligned with the year’s themes of renewal, perseverance, and hard-earned reward. Emerging with her first-ever film role as Celeste in Pedring Lopez’s upcoming action flick Shadow Transit, she’s not only making her acting debut in 2026 – she’s also announced a UK Tour this February supporting popular harmony group Collabro. Let’s dive behind the allure of the multi-hyphenate artist making serious waves.
Already, 2026 marks a milestone year for Qymira, with Hollywood firmly in her sights. But before galloping forward, it’s worth looking back at her career-defining 2025 – a year she reflected on in an emotional Instagram post.
“What a wild ride it has been!” she shared. “Time has flown by, and as if touched by a magic wand over the past 12 months, many of my dreams have come alive!”
Those dreams are as dazzling as they are diverse: a UK tour with Boyzlife, a collaboration with iconic celebrity jewellery brand VERGEZ, the release of her magnetic single ‘Melodrama,’ composing the film score for Shadow Transit, and even launching her own fashion label, Qymira Couture – to name just a few.
Shadow Transit has already gained international recognition, having been officially selected as one of the closing films under QC Selects at the QCinema International Film Festival, the largest international film festival in Asia. Following its premiere in the Philippines in November, the film is set to premiere in the UK in March 2026.
And it’s not just the silver screen she’ll be gracing. Fresh music is set to arrive hot on the heels of her magnetic single ‘Labyrinth of Life,’ which sent shockwaves through listeners – and now, there’s a chance to see her live these coming months as she joins Collabro – the world-famous harmony group – on a UK tour this February, set to appear in Cathedrals across the nation.
If there’s one artist inevitably poised for stardom in 2026, it’s Qymira. From merging her orchestral roots with pop sensibilities to bringing a strong, feminine, and empowering character to life on screen, she’s redefining genre, creativity, and possibility.
As for what comes next? With Qymira, the journey is just getting started.
