In his first post he also promoted the film The Harder They Fall, which tells a fictional story based on real-life black cowboys from American history.
Jay-Z served as producer on that feature and teamed up with fellow US rapper Kid Cudi for the song Guns Go Bang for the soundtrack.
On Tuesday, the 53-year-old rapper’s Instagram account was following his wife Beyonce along with promoting a new film.
The Book Of Clarence clip shows Scottish actor James McAvoy dressed as a Roman solider and is set during the time of Jesus Christ.
The film by Jeymes Samuel, a British singer-songwriter who has previously worked with Jay-Z, sees Stanfield’s character trying to become a Christ-like figure by declaring himself a Messiah and looking into performing miracles.
It also stars Selma actor David Oyelowo, Lupin lead actor Omar Sy and Sherlock star Benedict Cumberbatch.
