Gqeberha: The Empire S2

Season 1 of the SAFTA-nominated Mzansi Magic telenovela Gqeberha: The Empire took us into the world of the Mxenge family and their epic battle for control of their thriving business empire.

Now that the Mxenge family patriarch, Luzuko, is out of the picture, his brother Hlumelo (SAFTA winner Bongile Mantsai from Knuckle City) steps up to fill the void.

As Bullet, Zikhona Sodlaka (The Wife) won the 2024 National Film and TV Awards for Best Actress in a TV Series.

New cast this season include Africa Movie Academy Award nominee Oros Mampofu (Savage Beauty) and Zinzi Nsele (Gomora), who plays Vuyokazi, a junior police officer determined to expose the Mxenge family’s crimes.

Gqeberha: The Empire is created by multiple-SAFTA winners Phathu Makwarela and Gwydion Beynon of Tshedza Pictures, behind smash hit shows like Youngins, Adulting, Outlaws, and the International Emmy nominee The River.
