‘One Of Them Days’ Is SZA’s Film Debut

While SZA has plenty of screen experience thanks to her highly successful career as a singer and songwriter, One of Them Days marks her first starring role in a feature film.

SZA already has an Oscar nomination to her credit as one of the songwriters of the Best Original Song nominee “All the Stars” from the 2018 Best Picture Oscar nominee Black Panther.

Explaining to People in a Jan. 14 interview how starring in One of Them Days was a “bucket list” item, SZA noted of her movie acting debut, “I’m trying something brand new. All I can do is try my best, you know, and thank God for the opportunity and just kinda lean into and accept it as a growing experience. I have tons of fears of being perceived on camera, talking, my voice [and] being next to Keke, who’s a superstar of so many multitudes.”
