Ghanaian actress and media personality Nana Ama McBrown has once again proven to be a powerhouse in the Ghanaian entertainment industry.
Her latest movie, Ama, which premiered on Saturday, August 15, 2026, at the UPSA Auditorium in Accra, generated excitement among movie lovers, particularly fans of Mcbrown.
Ama is a Twi-language coming-of-age drama set in 1980s Ghana. The production takes audiences back to an era that provides a nostalgic backdrop for a story centred on growth, experiences and the realities of life.
Mcbrown leads the cast, with popular Kumawood actor and comedian Dr Likee, also known as Ras Nene, among the other notable personalities featured in the movie. Nikita McBrown and Adade Promise are also part of the reported cast.
The pairing of Nana Ama Mcbrown and Dr Likee has been one of the talking points surrounding the production, with both personalities having established themselves as major figures in Ghana’s movie and entertainment industry.
The premiere was initially expected to take place at the Accra Mall but was moved to the UPSA Auditorium following strong demand.
Three screenings took place at 2:00 PM, 5:00 PM and 8:00 PM, and all these saw huge numbers fill the auditorium.
For Mcbrown, the success surrounding Ama represents more than just another movie project. The production comes as she celebrates 25 years in Ghana’s entertainment industry.
Over the years, Mcbrown has successfully built a reputation as one of Ghana’s most recognisable actresses and entertainment personalities. From her early days in Ghanaian-language movies to her subsequent success as a television presenter and media personality, she has remained a prominent figure in the country’s creative industry.
