Bello wrote The Woman King after visiting Benin and learning about the Agojie. She recruited Cathy Schulman to develop it into a full film, but studios declined owing to budgetary concerns. TriStar Pictures greenlit the picture in 2020 after their 2017 meeting. South African production began in November 2021, was halted by COVID-19 Omicron, and resumed in early 2022. Polly Morgan filmed. Terence Blanchard composed the post-production score, and Terilyn A. Shropshire edited.

The Woman King Plot

General Nanisca, head of the all-female Agojie, frees Dahomean women from Oyo Empire slavers in 1823. King Ghezo of Dahomey prepares for battle with the Oyo. Nanisca trains fresh Agojie soldiers to defend the kingdom. Nawi’s father gave her to the king when she refused to marry males who would beat her. Veteran Agojie Nawi befriends Izogie. She tells Nanisca she’s adopted and exhibits a birthmark on her shoulder, stunning her.

Santo Ferreira and the half-Dahomean Malik arrive in conjunction with General Oba Ade’s Oyo. Nawi befriends Malik as he’s showering. Nawi slips off to speak with Malik after graduating from Agojie training to find that the Oyo are planning an attack. Nanisca reprimands her for being careless. Nanisca says Oba raped and impregnated her as a child. Nanisca implanted a shark tooth in her daughter’s shoulder before giving her away. Nanisca helps Nawi pull her tooth, proving she’s her daughter.

Nanisca leads Agojie against Oyo. Nawi and Izogie are captured, but Oba escapes. One Agojie escapes and tells Nanisca about the others. Ghezo plans to name Nanisca Woman King, his equal in controlling Dahomey, but refuses to save Agojie. Malik buys Nawi to guard Izogie after she is killed escaping. Nanisca defies orders and rescues hostages with other warriors. Nawi escapes the pandemonium to join Nanisca. Malik frees slaves who drown Ferreira, and Nanisca kills Oba. Agojie arrives to Dahomey, where Ghezo admonishes Nanisca before crowning her Woman King. Nanisca and Nawi acknowledge their family after the festivities.
