On top of his award-winning albums and political activism, the 31-year-old has built out the #Merky brand to include #Merky Books, #Merky Foundation and #Merky FC.
A deal is in place with Netflix to develop multiple projects, which will include "a powerful drama series" and "a seminal biopic", and talks are ongoing with other film companies.
It is set for release on YouTube at 8pm on Wednesday 18th June and tells "the poignant, fictional story of Tenzman, a former rap star now navigating a restless and uncertain chapter of his life".
"I hope it inspires you to dream bigger, live louder, and hold on to that unapologetic energy that comes with being young."
On the launch of his new film company, the British artist said: "I always say: music is my first love, but film is my second. #Merky Films is something I’ve been dreaming about for ages – a space for powerful British stories and a solid home for fresh, unexpected art.
Stormzy added that he hopes his new film company can uncover the "Aneil Karias of tomorrow who haven’t had that shot yet".
"We always like to give that opportunity before the world latches on and catches up. I definitely, in 30 or 40 years' time, want to see whoever wins the best director of the year at the Oscars to say that the first thing they directed was for #Merky Films."
