Luti Fagbenle Launches TV Company Osun With ‘Supacell’ Producer Sheila Nortley as Drama Head

As a seasoned gamer with an eye for quality entertainment, I am thrilled about the formation of Osun Group! With Luti Fagbenle and Sheila Nortley at the helm, this dynamic duo is set to shake up the global content market. Their combined experience in producing high-end television and their commitment to diverse storytelling resonates deeply with me as a gamer who values unique narratives that transcend borders.


British actor and media entrepreneur Luti Fagbenle, younger sibling of O-T Fagbenle (known for “The Handmaid’s Tale”), has established Osun Group, a TV production company with operations in both the UK and US. Sheila Nortley, who has worked on Netflix series such as “Stay Close” and hit dramas like “Supacell,” will head the company’s television projects as Head of Drama and Executive Producer, following a partnership agreement.

She will also continue her work as an independent producer.

On Wednesday, the company announced its commitment to creating top-tier TV content with universal appeal, aiming to leave a substantial mark on the global entertainment industry. Osun intends to produce captivating stories for both scripted and unscripted genres, and has pledged to deliver innovative content.

Fagbenle stated: “Our aim for Osun is to create an ideal environment where various talents can express their narratives, supplying the necessary infrastructure and culturally sensitive leadership to bring their most daring ventures to life. Sheila’s impressive history and commitment to diverse storytelling align flawlessly with our vision. With the recent triumph of the popular series Supacell, there couldn’t be a more opportune moment.

Nortley emphasized, “Our focus is on unity and foresight. In an environment where caution has taken over, the greatest danger lies in failing to adapt. We’re thrilled to push boundaries by advocating for a diverse range of narratives, viewpoints, and experiences, and producing exceptional television.

The upcoming enterprise aims to carry forward the tradition set by Fagbenle’s Luti Media, known for creating shows like “Maxxx” (Channel 4, Hulu) and “Blue Therapy” (Amazon, BET+, E4). Meanwhile, Luti Media will persist in their work of developing promotional content and music videos.

The company stated that Osun can finance projects and secure funding for production using various methods such as venture capital investments, strong partnerships, and worldwide connections.
