House of Ga'a is the latest drama from Netflix set in the 18th-century Oyo Empire. It chronicles the rise and fall of the tyrannical Bashorun Ga'a, a man who surpassed the kings he served, only to meet his downfall at the hands of his own blood. The compelling movie premiered on Netflix on July 26, 2024.

Prouded by BAP Productions, House of Ga'a was written by Tunde Babalola and directed by Bolanle Austen-Peters. It stars Femi Branch, Mike Afolarin, Funke Akindele, Toyin Abraham, and Ibrahim Chatta.

Fueled by ambition and his thirst for revenge against his enemies, he established himself as a notorious kingmaker and kingslayer, eliminating four kings utilizing spiritual powers.
