The slate includes ‘My Twin Sister Stole My Man,’ a drama centered on betrayal, family, and identity; ‘I Married the King of the Streets,’ a romance where love and power collide; and ‘The Love Contract,’ which follows an arranged relationship that starts becoming something much more real.

The move comes as Mansa continues expanding its presence in the rapidly growing microdrama space.

For Oyelowo and Parker, the TikTok partnership further pushes Mansa’s mission. Oyelowo said in a statement:

“As viewing habits evolve, we are embracing new formats and platforms that allow us to remain connected to our audience while creating meaningful opportunities for diverse storytellers and talent.”
