We don’t know much about Thusi’s character or the show, just that she plays the role of Zama. However, from the trailer, we can see that the team are on a revenge mission that becomes a fight to save the world from an ancient threat, when a superpowered assassin Kai tracks a killer to Bangkok.
From the action-packed trailer, Pearl looks like she’s in her element. This is not the first time she has acted in this genre, she was the lead actress of Queen Sono on Netflix, which unfortunately was not renewed for a second season.
Many fans congratulated the actress on her new role as people cant wait to see her on the screen again.
In November 2021, the media personality tried to get Queen Sono renewed for a new season. It came as a surprise to some that the show wasn’t given another season.
It was a Netflix Africa original, created by comedian and director Kagiso Lediga. It was cancelled due to filming difficulties as confirmed by the streaming service.
The nature of Queen Sono required shoots on location in various countries across the world. With the ever-present threat of the coronavirus and the travel bans instituted to curb the spread of the disease, this proved difficult for a new season.
