Singer, TV presenter, and Britain’s Got Talent judge Alesha Dixon has taken an exciting new step in her career, into the world of filmmaking.
The 45-year-old star has been announced as the executive producer of a short film titled Fire Lily, a thought-provoking drama that explores the systematic abuse of power in society.
Written by Phil Dunn, the film promises to be both emotionally charged and socially relevant, shining a light on the dynamics of authority and oppression.
Alesha’s involvement was revealed in an Instagram post on Wednesday, before she took to her own Stories to share her enthusiasm for the project.
Speaking about the move, Alesha said:
"I'm honoured and excited to join an already stellar team of creatives and watch Fire Lily blossom. I believe this film will make a powerful impact on the world and inspire many people."
Although Alesha is no stranger to creative work behind the scenes, she was previously credited as an executive producer on her own music video Chargie, Fire Lily marks her first significant venture into the film industry.
Her decision to join the production team reflects her growing passion for storytelling beyond the stage and screen, as she lends her voice and influence to a project with a strong social message.

The Fire Lily team has not yet revealed the full cast or release date, but anticipation is already building. The short film format allows filmmakers to explore powerful themes in a concise but impactful way, and with Alesha’s involvement, there’s no doubt the project will gain extra attention.
Alesha’s move into film comes at a time when she continues to juggle a variety of high-profile roles. Alongside her judging duties on Britain’s Got Talent, she has also been active in music, television presenting, and advocacy work.
Fans were quick to show their support following the announcement. One wrote: "This is so exciting, Alesha! Can’t wait to see how you bring your magic to this project." Another added: "Love that you’re using your platform for stories that need to be told."
The singer, who first rose to fame as part of the chart-topping group Mis-Teeq, has built a career on versatility. From winning Strictly Come Dancing to becoming a household name on prime-time television, her latest move proves she’s still eager to explore new creative avenues.
For Alesha, Fire Lily is more than just a film, it’s a statement of intent. She’s stepping into a new arena, one that allows her to influence narratives and support meaningful stories from the ground up.
