A Loss Inspired Kofi Siriboe's 'JUMP!'
The hunky Queen Sugar star proved to the world that he has more than to offer to the industry through his latest work, a short film, JUMP. He wrote, directed, produced, and starred in the film, which was released in October 2018.
JUMP is an inspirational film portraying Kofi in the role of Ziggy-who is battling with an intense mental health issue as a consequence of grappling with grief. It shows the tormenting struggles one undergoes as a victim of depression.

The captivating truth behind the filmmaking is the cause behind it. Kofi set off to make this film to let his frustration out for losing a friend/mentor to suicide.
It happened around the time he was on a break from Queen Sugar and left him in utter grief. He found this movie as a medium to create a relatable subject and help the victims to grow resilient in the meanwhile.

Kofi Siriboe not Ready to Get Back to Dating
Not long after the breakup, Siriboe candidly spoke about why he was single during an appearance on the Yes Girl! Podcast (via. Distractify). He explained that he would not be in a relationship unless he were really able to commit to his partner, be it a girlfriend or a wife.
Before I'm able to commit, I have to show myself that I can commit to myself and become the man I want to be.
He went on to explain that he was working on himself and that he had his priorities straight.
Siriboe wanted a woman in his life; he wanted kids; he wanted to amass a fortune, but before all of that, he had to work on himself.
