Queen Sono
February 2020 saw history being made with Netflix’s first script-to-screen African Original Series, Queen Sono. Created by actor, filmmaker, writer and comedian  Kagiso Lediga, who also co-directed alongside TV director Tebogo Malope, this six-part series showcases how well African filmmakers can rise to the challenge of producing glossy global entertainment, when there is a realistic budget.
Stunning South African model turned actress, Pearl Thusi (see image above), takes the lead as the kick-ass defiant, deadly, sometimes vulnerable Queen Sono.
A rollercoaster spy action thriller on South African terms, with a splash of family drama and intrigue thrown in for good measure, Queen Sono tells the story of an espionage heroine dedicated to protecting the African continent.
